Superintendents Student Advisory Committee
There is a very influential group impacting Frisco ISD that most people do not know about, the Superintendents Student Advisory Committee.
Each high school campus nominates four students who will normally serve on this committee for the remainder of their high school career. They usually meet once a month over lunch to discuss any issues on their mind directly with the Superintendent, Dr. Rick Reedy. Dr. Reedy has stated that the first year, most of them are pretty quiet and just listen. But by the time they are seniors and they all know each other better, they don’t hold anything back.
During any given discussion, you will often find Dr. Reedy explaining why things are done a certain way and the students challenging him with what they feel would be a better way. Having had a daughter serve on this committee for three years and watching it as a board member for seven years, I can tell you that they really are a positive change agent for our district. Dr. Reedy has admitted that he learns a great deal from these spirited discussions.
Here is a picture of this year’s committee as they gather for their final lunch meeting of the year at Babe’s.
