Parent Advisory Committee

All preschool programs operated by the Napa County Office of Education are California State Preschool programs, funded by the State Department of Education. Convening a Parent Advisory Council is a requirement of being a State Preschool Program.

Purpose of the Council: The Parent Advisory Council will advise our programs and share ideas and insight from the parent perspective related to services for children and families.

Council Functions include, but are not limited to:

• Parents selected to be a part of the Council will attend approximately 4-5 meetings per year.
• Parent Representatives will carry information from the Parent Advisory Council back to their sites and share with other parents or at parent meetings as needed.
• Parent Representatives will bring any questions or concerns from their site to the Parent Advisory Council.
• The Parent Advisory Council will review the Agency Annual Plan.
• The Parent Advisory Council will review and advise on data as collected annually with the parent surveys.
• Parent Representatives will coordinate with other parents from their site to develop a plan for Staff Appreciation Day (May).

Please contact your child’s teacher if you are interested in participating on the Parent Advisory Committee.

Thank you for your willingness to share your time and your perspectives by becoming involved in your child’s education!
