Creative Communication Academy Board Appreciation
Dear Creative Communication Academy Family,
Our school board members are just ordinary citizens – your friends and neighbors – with extraordinary dedication to our community and our children. They provide a vital service in our community. Public education is the backbone of American society, and local school boards are deeply rooted in U.S. tradition.
Our board of education establishes a vision for the education program maintains the structure to achieve that vision and provides accountability to the community. Each member is a strong advocate for continuous improvement in student learning. They study, discuss and research so that they can make informed decisions on countless complex issues.
The job of a school board member is tough, the hours long and the thanks few and far between. Too often, we forget about the personal sacrifices school board members make. They spend hours in meetings and on committees, advocating for our schools, by speaking out against budget cuts or pushing for policy and program reforms.
November marks the observance of National School Board Appreciation Month for Dolton School District 149. This is a time to show our appreciation and begin to better understand how local boards work together to prepare today’s students to be tomorrow’s leaders. Please join with others from throughout our district and to salute those who provide grassroots governance of our public schools.
On behalf of the Administration, staff and students of Creative Communications Academy, we applaud them for their vision and their willingness to accept the responsibility of today’s students to become tomorrow’s leaders. We say “THANK YOU”
Educationally Yours,
Mrs. ZaRita Beal
Principal
