University of Texas Elementary Charter School – Education Council

The mission of the Education Council is to promote excellence in education for all students through broad-based representation. The Education Council provides valuable input to the principal, regarding decision-making responsibility for the campus.
The Education Council is a committee of parents/caretakers, students, business and community representatives, teachers, the principal, and other campus staff. The formation of campus advisory councils is requuired by state law (Texas Education Code, §11.251).
