The Copper River School District (CRSD) Migrant Education Program (MEP) is seeking a more diverse population of parent volunteers to serve on the local MEP Parent Advisory Committee (PAC). The district first received the MEP grant in 2017 and the first five years after receiving the grant has been focused on growing the program, as well as, recruitment and retention of migrant students. Now that the program is thriving and almost half the district is enrolled with the MEP, the primary focus is on improving services, ensuring our students are succeeding, and forming a Comprehensive Needs Assessment (CNA). However, for the CNA to move forward, a PAC is required.

The PAC advises the school district with concerns that migrant parents have regarding the plan, operation, and evaluation of MEP programs and projects in which their children participate in school-related activities. As part of the PAC, it is necessary to form a council composed of DIVERSE migrant parents. It is advisable to hold several meetings throughout the year to discuss the various dynamics of the MEP. These meetings can be integrated with other informative aspects offered in the community.

If you would like to nominate someone or be a candidate for the PAC, please complete a nomination form by September 30, 2024 or contact Ashley Hicks-Martin at 907.822.8556 to request a form be emailed to you. You may also choose to submit your information online at: https://forms.gle/x46qG9iyeZDL6cBe7

All nominees will be contacted by October 1, 2024 to confirm the nomination. If you have not heard from the MEP office by that date, please call Ashley Hicks-Martin no later than October 2, 2024 in order to be placed on the ballot.

Refreshments will be provided at the meeting.
