YOUR WCHSA Committee

 Yes – the committee is there to serve YOU and is elected by YOU – if homeschooling is something YOU believe in, and would like to continue to grow from strength to strength – then YOU need to make YOUR contribution!!  Come to the AGM to learn about YOUR association and vote for a committee that will meet YOUR needs.  Did the committee do a good job in 2001 ??  Then come to the AGM to show your support.  Not a good job – then come to the AGM to elect a better committee !!!!!

 The December newsletter gave some insights into a typical committee meeting – the positions that we need on the committee are as follows:

Chairman – responsible to the members for the overall operation of the

                   committee and its functions;

                - acts as a spokesman for the WCHSA when necessary.

                - responsible for maintaining contact with the education

                  department officials.

 Secretary – calls and co-ordinates committee meetings. 

                 - handles correspondence

 Treasurer – responsible for financial affairs of the WCHSA

 Membership co-ordinator - build information database of members

 Network co-ordinator  - put members in contact with one another,

                                      - assist in forming new networks, 

                                      - provide committee members with resource

                                        list & people resource list.  (Note: the

                                        Christian Homeschool Network has an invited

                                        ex-officio member on the committee –

                                        currently Juliette Murfin).

Assistant for new Homeschoolers – handles phone calls, posting & emailing

                                                         information.

                                                       - maintains general information package.

                                                         (Note, needs to be friendly,

                                                          regard to curriculum choice.)
