 During these meetings, student and teacher council members discussed and planned new 2022-2023 school calendar ideas, AFMS & AFHS renovation suggestions, ACDS accreditation visit, and various other recommendations, concerns, and ideas for both our present and upcoming school year. 

 

Dr. Gilmore expressed how scholars should always have a voice and be included on decisions that impact their learning environment.

 

“Each of the scholars’ voices matter. Having students represent from each grade level allows us to learn firsthand what our students want/need from us. They deserve a high quality education and that is what we, the educators and leaders of Allendale County School District will provide to them.” She said.

 

Teachers and students of the Superintendent’s Advisory Council are excited to come together and be a voice for positive change for everyone.
