Board
Leadership of the HISP Council is vested in the HISP Board. Board members are volunteer HISP parents who are appointed or reinstated annually. The HISP Board includes the president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, committee chairs, at-large members representing each grade, and the HISP coordinator. New board members are selected in spring. Bylaws provide the HISP Board with a governance structure and guidelines for operation. At its September meeting, the HISP board adopts the organization’s annual budget for the school year with updates presented at each HISP Council meeting throughout the year.
