School District Invites Oversight

The Boulder Valley School District is forming a Citizens' Oversight Committee regarding the recently passed bond issue. The committee will be made up of faculty, staff and citizens from District communities representing a range of interests/expertise. Applications for this committee are due by 4:30 PM, January 8, 2007. You can find the application and details here or call Robert Hammond, BVSD COO at 303-447-5019.

The commitment involves a two- or three-year term. Given the District's history of spending decisions in the past, this volunteer effort may actually have a good turnout of applicants. Plus, being involved with this issue committee members can be certain whoever the new Superintendent is understands the priorities and agencies of the Bond's projects. (Dr. Garcia retires the end of this school year.)
