The success of Cottonwood Valley Charter School depends heavily on parent participation, and especially on having functional committees to carry out key activities. Standing committees are mandated by the school's charter; others are created as needed by the Governing Council. Currently-operating committees and members' responsibilities are described below. Each committee is chaired by a Governing Council member.

Parent and community involvement in these committees is vital. If you are interested in participating, please contact the chair listed for that committee; contact information may be found on the Governing Council members Web page. If no chair is identified below, please contact the President of the CVCS Governing Council for information.

The information in this section of the Web site is reviewed by J. Benson.
