Stargate Governance 101:
Where can I find information on all of the committees of the Board? Each committee has a page on the governance website that has the details of what each committee does and when and where they meet. You can find it here: http://charter.stargateschool.org/committees.

Board Thank Yous:
A big thank you from the Board to volunteers who coordinated Spirit Night at Chick-Fil-A and the Elf movie event at Cinebarre. Both events were great fun and brought lots of Stargate families together while raising money for our school.

If you have a question for the board, please send an email to governance@stargateschool.org.
