The Hidden Hills Site Council is in need of several parents to join our board for the 2013-14 school year. The School Site Council serves as the school community representative body for determining the focus of the school's academic instructional program and all related categorical resources. We meet 4-5 times/year to create/update the school site plan, review the budget and provide ongoing monitoring of the implementation of the site plan. If you are interested or would like more information on Site Council, please contact Jennifer Ottley.
