ELECTIONS

Dear parents,

This year’s election of parents’ representatives to the School’s Governing Board is ELECTRONIC. It means that your child will not bring you the ballot to fill out and put in the ballot box but you will vote ONLINE. It’s a big change, please follow carefully the instructions in communication from School.

​

From 9 to 13 October 2023, parents of the European School will elect their representatives on the school board (Conseil d’administration-CA). They have 7 seats on the School Board (approximately ¼ of all seats).

7 parents from the members elected at the General Assembly will defend your interests on all issues discussed at meetings of the school Board such as:

• After-school services
• European education
• Relations with the school and its partners
• Dialogue with class representatives
• European projects, student exchange programmes
• Events and parties
• Environment

The European school board is composed of representatives from:

– School management

– European institutions contributing to the school’s budget: Parliament, Ombudsman, Eulisa

– CEA (Communauté européenne d’Alsace)

– City of Strasbourg

– Strasbourg Rectorate

– Parents

– Teaching staff

– Non-teaching staff

– Students

Why vote? an association supported by its members will be in a stronger position to defend your interests, follow through on issues that you raise with us and seek out solutions in cooperation with school management.

The more votes the association has, the greater its legitimacy.

How do I vote ? By selecting the complete list from the electronic vote.

It is not possible to select individual candidates from the list: you can only vote for entire list, 7 full members and 7 substitute members (14 people in total).
