Get Involved

Parents are encouraged to actively participate in the education of their child. A child’s success in school is best assured when the school and the home collaborate their efforts. Parent involvement in a child’s school gives the message to students that education is an important community effort. It also provides youngsters with a strong model for civic and community involvement as adults. Here are just a few ways that you can get involved at LeyVa.

School Site Council (SSC)

Every school is required to establish a School Site Council staffed by teachers, parents, and classified employees. These councils generally either drive decisions or advise the principal. Learn more about LeyVa's SSC.

English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC)

ELAC is a committee comprised of parents, staff, and community members specifically designated to advise school officials on English Learner program services. Additional information about ELAC can be found on the California Department of Education's ELAC website.
