Community Partners in Education

Patrons Advisory Committee

Input from the community is essential in providing a high quality education for students of Moore Public Schools. The Board and administration value participation from parents, students, staff, and other members of the community in carrying out the work of the school system.

For several years important input has been provided by a committee comprised of about 100 parents, teachers, administrators, civic leaders, retired persons and others interested in a strong school system. This committee, called the Patrons' Advisory Committee, meets on a regular basis to assist the district in planning for future needs as well as provide input on current issues facing the district.

Through the years the committee has helped in determining items that will placed on bond issues. The committee also is instrumental in ensuring the passage of the bond issues.

 

Chambers of Commerce

The Moore Public Schools district is located in the cities of Moore and Oklahoma City. The school system is fortunate to work with Chambers of Commerce in Moore and South Oklahoma City to promote public education.

Both chambers are active in supporting Moore Public Schools in several ways. They have supported bond issues and other activities to enhance economic and civic well-being of the area. For 18 years the South Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce has sponsored "Excellence in Education," a program to recognize outstanding teachers, students, and community leaders in education.

Both chambers offer relocation packets and other information about business and industry, community development, housing and quality of life. For more information go to their websites at www.moorechamber.com and www.southokc.com.
