Members of the Superintendent Advisory Council met for the first time at lunch Tuesday in the boardroom of the Administration Center. VISD Supt. Dr. Kermit Ward formed the council, which consists of students from the 9th thru 12th grades, to stay in informed on the school experience from a student perspective. During their first meeting, members talked about they liked about high school and about some of their concerns.
Members of the council advocated for a 40-minute lunch period. After hearing their effective argument, Dr. Ward advised VHS Principal Cynthia Jackson to look into adjusting the schedule to allow students to have a 40-minute lunch period. Students also commented about it being too cold in the high school building, and Dr. Ward said temperatures would be adjusted in the building.
The advisory council will meet once a quarter.
