The
Board of the Special Services School District and the Vocational Technical School District for the County of Salem appoints
a citizen's
advisory board to provide community input to the Board
of Education and administration. The Community and Staff Advisory
Board assists the district in achieving its mission,
which is to provide
Salem County residents with educational programs leading
to employment, preparation for higher education leading
to employment, and for lifelong learning.
The
efforts of
the Community and Staff Advisory Board are directly
supported by over 200 county residents, who serve on
various career and
technical,
academic cluster and special education program and Program
Advisory Committees.
The
Advisory Board takes an active role in assisting with
the
implementation of the strategic vision plan, and will continue
to assist the district in implementing the
two-year action plan.

The
Advisory Board also operates five standing committees:
Community Information and Community Relations - This committee is charged with promoting district programs and services, identifying value addeds for these programs and services, assisting with the establishment of focus groups to test market and promote information, developing marketing strategies and student recruitment initiatives. This committee is also charged with seeking general community input regarding existing programs, services and perception of the district.
Curriculum and Instruction - This committee is charged with reviewing curriculum for appropriateness and relevance and with identifying areas that program committees may need to study further. The committee has responsibility to review the district's program evaluation models and to make recommendations. This committee annually reviews selected programs and services in accordance with board policy and statutory requirements.
Transitional – This committee is responsible for developing opportunities for students to assist them in the transition between high school and higher education or career paths. Opportunities include co-ops, apprenticeships, college placement, job placement and assistance with establishing good work habits and standards.
Facilities – This committee serves to advise and provide input for the development and maintenance of a safe, nurturing learning environment. This committee will study and contribute to the district’s long-range facilities plan and help develop a plan to meet the needs of a growing enrollment.
Special Education – This committee will examine and review the district's support systems to more effectively serve students with special needs, including those with identified disabilities and/or 504 plans, for the purpose of enhancing their success and achievement. One third of the students enrolled at the Career and Technical High School have IEP’s. Three of the buildings between the two school districts are specifically geared towards serving students with special needs.
