Local School Council
It’s that time of year to elect our Local School Council members. We have 3 openings for parents to fill with at least one parent involved in a business atmosphere.
The Local School Council brings parents, teachers, and school leaders together to support and improve education. Gwinnett County Public Schools and Pinckneyville Middle School have always relied on these important groups. Our bylaws allow for at least five (not to exceed ten) parent representatives on this important advisory council.
Nominations for School Council will be open from September 1 – September 27. All nominations must be received in the office of the Principal by Friday, September 27, 2019.
NOMINATION FORM (also found in front office)
In addition to the application, the person you nominate will be required to submit a brief paragraph explaining why he or she is interested in serving on the Local School Council.
