Principles of Committee Work
- All committees adhere to the defined committee process and structure.
- All committees design pilot projects based on specific, measurable outcomes.
- All viewpoints are heard and valued.
- The committee process is collaborative.
- Committee outcomes must align community resources behind MNPS goals (resources are defined as personnel, programs, expertise, money, materials, space, and technology)
- Committees do not determine WHAT to accomplish; instead, committees determine HOW to accomplish what MNPS has determined is needed through its strategic planning process.
- The committee process must engage community organizations (non-profits, business, schools, colleges and universities, government agencies, students and families, and faith-based organizations)
- Committee pilot projects are designed based on data and community research.
- Participation in committee pilot projects is determined solely by the committee.
- Agendas of individuals and organizations are left at the door.
- Outcomes are based on the committee agenda.
- Committees are accountable to the Operating Board.
