Press release from the Boulder Valley School District:

November 11, 2021

The BVSD Office of Sustainability is thrilled to announce the creation of the new Sustainability Advisory Committee (“Community Group, or Group”) and call for nominations of members. This new community group was established through the 2021 greenBVSD Action Plan released this fall. The mission of the committee will be to act as a cross-sector advisory group to oversee the progress and continuous improvement related to all aspects of the greenBVSD Action Plan.

The group will make suggestions and give advice to the Board in order to assist it in its decision-making. The committee will have 15 members total, representing the communities throughout the District, teachers, parents, staff, students, and District partners. Members selected through the inaugural nomination process will serve a two-year term.

Once formed, the committee will solidify its structure and operations through the creation of by-laws that outline all aspects of the group. The committee is expected to meet quarterly, and its first meeting will take place shortly after spring semester begins in January 2022. The time commitment is estimated to be one to two hours per month.

If you are interested in being a member of this group, or would like to nominate someone to participate, please use the following short nomination form. Please also share this information with anyone who might be interested.

Nominations close December 10, 2021.
