Curriculum Advisory Council
The Curriculum Advisory Council, also known as CAC, is the formal advisory group for Alexandria Public Schools whose purpose is to advise, direct, and support the district in designing, implementing, and evaluating curricula to meet Minnesota Graduation Standards. The CAC membership includes students, parents, community and business members, teachers, administrators, and school board members to ensure that a wide range of perspectives is represented.
Members meet on the third Monday of designated months at 5:15 PM at the district office beginning in September and concluding in May. CAC volunteers serve three-year terms. Members are solicited by district leaders and through recommendations. New members are selected between June and September. The role of CAC is to communicate with parents the activities of the committee, and to solicit comments and feedback on curriculum and assessment issues.
The Curriculum Advisory Council serves in partnership with representatives of the instructional staff, the School Board, and administration.
