School Advisory Board

The School Advisory Board has the following Sub-Commitees:

• Strategic Planning Committee
• Enrollment Committee
• Major Gifts Committee
• Nominations Committee
• Catholic Identity Committee

The School Advisory Board consists of eight (8) members nominated by the Nominating Committee and elected by majority vote of the Advisory Board after being approved by the Pastor. Majority of the Advisory Board must be persons who are not the parent, grandparent or legal guardian of a student attending the school. At least two-thirds of the Advisory Members shall either be clergy with facilities in the Diocese of Austin, an Eucharistic minister who is in full communion with the Roman Catholic Church or a lay individual who is a registered member of a parish in the Diocese of Austin and who is in full communion with the Roman Catholic Church.  

The purpose of the School Advisory Board is to assist the Pastor and Principal in an advisory capacity by recommending local school policies in compliance with Canon Law of the Church and the policies and directives of the Diocese of Austin. The School Advisory Board is not responsible for the administration of the school but recommends policies to the Principal and Pastor for their consideration. 

Strategic Planning: The School Advisory Board sets long-range goals and objectives for the school in the Five Year Long Range Strategic Plan. On an annual basis, short-term goals are set for each school year, using the Strategic Plan as a guide.

Policy-Making: The School Advisory Board recommends polices consistent with the policies set forth in the Handbook of School Policies from the Diocesan School Advisory Board. It is the responsibility of the School President/Principal to implement and administer such policies.

Regular meetings are typically held on the third Wednesday of the month. School parents are encouraged to attend any regular meeting. All School Advisory Board meetings are open meetings with the exception of executive sessions and work sessions. No motions are voted upon except in an open meeting.
