Academic Policy Committee members are elected by parents and school staff in the spring. However, when vacancies occur, the board votes to fill a seat for the remaining term.
Officers are voted on by APC members and serve for one year.
The public is invited to attend any and all APC meetings - agendas are posted at the school a few days prior to the meeting.
We allow a maximum of 30 minutes in the beginning and end of the meeting for public comment.
"House rules": The APC reserves the right to ask anyone who is under the influence of drugs or alcohol or who uses profanity or addresses anyone in a derogatory way or wishes to speak of staff of ANCCS to leave the meeting with or without finishing their public comment.
APC Subcommittees
-
Family members and elders are an important part of every aspect of the program. We invite anyone to volunteer and/or join a subcommittee. These meetings are open to all interested people.

Current committees are:
- ByLaws
