Northampton High School Council invites members of the public to its meetings. We set aside time at the beginning of each meeting for the public to address us, and we appreciate the thoughts and feedback we receive from the community. Because of our obligations under the Open Meetings Law, the work of the Council can only be done when we are together in our public meetings. For this reason, we cannot respond to the public comments we receive in real time, and we must limit the public comment to a defined time on our meeting agenda. 

The School Council is a representative, building-based committee composed of the principal, caregivers, teachers, community members, and students, required to be established by each school pursuant to M.G.L., Chapter 71, Section 59c. The function of the School Council is to assist the principal in adopting educational goals for the school, identifying the educational needs of students attending the school, reviewing the annual school budget, and formulating a School Improvement Plan. In addition, the principal, in consultation with the School Council, reviews the student handbook each year to consider changes in disciplinary policy.
