Because Adair County High School has a minority student population of eight percent or greater, and the SBDM Council does not currently have a minority member, there will be a special election to add a minority parent member to the council.
Nominees must be the parent of a current ACHS student. A parent is defined as anyone who is a parent, stepparent, foster parent and/or a person who has legal custody of a student. [KRS 160.345(1)(d)]
For the purposes of SBDM, minority is defined as American Indian; Alaskan native; African-American; Hispanic, including persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Central American or South American origins; Pacific Islander; or other ethnic group underrepresented in the school.” [KRS 160.345(1)(a)]
Nominations forms are available by going to the link below or may be picked up at the ACHS Office. Nominations are due by 3 p.m. on Tuesday, October 31, 2023. The election will be held on Thursday, November 2, 2023, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at ACHS.
