Are you interested in health and wellness, or sports and cocurricular activities? Indian education? Setting the districtwide school calendar?
Consider volunteering for a KPBSD committee! Several opportunities are open:
The Kenai Peninsula School Activities Association (KPSAA) is seeking a Parent Representative to serve the remainder of the current term ending with the current school year. Parent Representatives are an important voice on the KPSAA Board, and will seek information from other KPBSD parents to report back to the KPSAA Board at our quarterly meetings. For more information, please contact Tiffany Eck no later than September 9, 2016 via email teck@kpbsd.k12.ak.us or by phone 907-714-8884. Our first meeting is scheduled for September 15, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. at Soldotna Prep school.
The KPBSD Wellness Committee is seeking nominations for a Parent Representative.
