Dear
Rippleton Parents/Guardians:
In
accordance with our By-Laws, the Rippleton Association of Parents &
Teachers (RAPT) will elect a new council for the 2013-14 school year on September
25th, 2013.
Although
all parents are member of RAPT and are encouraged to attend RAPT meetings, only
those elected to RAPT Council have a vote on RAPT matters. RAPT Council
consists of the Principal, two voting staff members determined by their
peers and seven voting elected parent members.
Parent
members are elected to RAPT for a term of one year however there is no limit to
the number of years you can be elected to RAPT Council provided you are the
parent or guardian of a student at the school.
For this coming year, there are a number of current Council members who
will be ineligible to continue on RAPT Council and we are excited about the
opportunity to add new, fresh faces and ideas to the team.
If
you are interested in the opportunity to serve the school in this capacity
please fill out a self nomination form and return to the school as
soon as possible. Or, if you know
someone who would be a great addition to the team, please consider filling out
the alternate nomination form. Links to both forms can be found below.
Once the RAPT
Council has been elected, the Council themselves will determine the Executive
positions. They may choose to determine these by skill
set, volunteer history on RAPT and/or willingness to serve in that
capacity.
Please contact the school or comment to this post if you have any
further questions.
Thank
you,
-RAPT
