PTA facilitates parental participation by hosting programs and events that enhance the relationship between home and school so that parents, administrators and teachers may cooperate in the education of the students. 

School Council gives ACA parents and staff a pivotal role in the academic operation of ACA by helping draft policies and procedures. 

Both the PTA and School Council Presidents attend monthly ACA Board meetings.

School Council Committee Members

The ACA School Council is the organization that represents all stakeholders in ACA. All schools in Arizona are legally required to have a school council.

Its function is to field concerns from any stakeholder (student, parent, employee, administration, board, or community at large), and to resolve any conflict in a fair, balanced and democratic manner.

A copy of the ACA School Council bylaws can be obtained from the ACA website. The council meets usually on a monthly basis or as needed. All concerns, suggestions, or other matters should be submitted in writing to the President or the Secretary.
