Governance
Site Council was created to protect the integrity of Thornton Creek’s program philosophy and goals, by setting policy and establishing standards, guidelines, and procedures.
It is also an advisory group to the 501(c)3 organization named Thornton Creek Parent Group.
Site Council’s goals include:
- Fostering communication and cooperation between the administration,
teachers, staff, and parents on matters of common interest;
- Establishing and maintaining relationships with other community groups
and the Seattle Public Schools (the school district); and
- Providing public meetings and forums to gather community input, explain
policy, and educate and involve community members.
For more information, please see the following documents, which are in the process of being updated as of April 2019:
