Principal's Den
The Campus Educational Improvement Committee (CEIC) is a major communication tool for the Principal in matters of policy and procedures. It serves as a communication link to receive campus and community input. CEIC members serve in an advisory role and provide campus administration with unique points of view depending on their role within the community.
Please consider joining our CEIC to help us better understand the many cultures of our families. Fill out the application below. हाम्रो परिवारको धेरै संस्कृतिकाहरुलाई अझ राम्ररी बुझ्न मद्दत गर्न कृपया हाम्रो CEIC मा सामेल गर्न विचार गर्नुहोस्। तलको अनुप्रयोग भर्नुहोस्।
CEIC will meet 4 times a year (once per quarter) between now and the end of the school year, from 4:00-5:00. Meetings will be scheduled in advance and are open to the public.
At the beginning of each school year, representatives are elected by members of the Sunset Valley community. All you have to do is fill out an application and return it to the Principal by Friday, October 5, 2018. The application will be emailed home and has been attached below.
Do you know a member of the Keller ISD community who does not stand in a parental relationship to a KISD student? Do you know a member of the Keller ISD community who owns, operates, or is employed by a business who resides in KISD? Ask them if they would like to serve on our CEIC as a community or business member! We need your help in finding two community and two business members to serve! Please refer your questions, or potential candidates to me or campus secretary, Debbie Rush.
