Mrs. Arulyn Jackson from the Effingham School District has been named to the Georgia Department of Education’s statewide Superintendent’s Parent Advisory Council (PAC.)
Effingham was selected as one out of 30 school districts in the state to have the opportunity to nominate a parent to serve on this first statewide group.
Mr. Yancy Ford and his staff were given the opportunity to nominate a parent from their school. Mrs. Arulyn Jackson was nominated by the school staff and selected by the Georgia Department of Education to serve on the PAC. She along with other selected parents will meet two times this year with State Superintendent Kathy Cox to discuss education in Georgia with a specific focus on how to increase parent and family engagement to ensure student success.
The parents will get an opportunity to provide feedback and input on new policies, projects, and materials that influence students and their families. PAC members also serve as advisors and act as ambassadors, sharing the information they’ve learned with members of their communities, other families and local schools.
