About the Council
The Community Council is Watershed’s main parent organization. Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month from 6:30 to 8:00 PM, at the school. (There are occasional exceptions - check the calendar or contact one of the co-chairs if in doubt.) All Watershed parents are invited and encouraged to participate!
The current co-chairs are Endel Kallas (eakallas (at) usinternet.com) and David Woolley (drwool (at) thinkofit.com.)
Community Council description from the Watershed Parent Handbook:
This is the parent/community member body of the school that supports parents, teachers, and students through communication, volunteer involvement, fundraising, and community building efforts. The Community Council is the primary opportunity for parents to organize and participate in support of school life, and all parents are encouraged to attend meetings. The Watershed Community Council (CC) was mandated by the Watershed High School (WHS) Board to do the following:
- Support the mission of WHS.
- Extend the WHS community beyond the school day to include parents, alumni, and the community at large.
- Create a community gesture that will embrace and ensure the quality and essence of a Waldorf community.
- Provide a voice and entry point for contribution to all community members.
Led by two parent co-chairs, the CC meets once a month and is open to all parents and faculty who wish to participate. In addition to parent members, the Administrator and one or both of the Faculty Chairs regularly attends meetings and make reports. Other Faculty members report on an occasional and rotating basis.
