School Constituency

The local school constituency consists of all the baptized members of the churches who have chosen to join together to operate a school. In addition, all members of the faculty, the officers of the local
conference, the local conference superintendent and their associate(s), and the union conference director of education and their associate(s) may be members.

As a teacher you should visit each constituent church before school, if at all possible. Introduce yourself and be friendly. These are the people who support the school. They are sacrificing to make the school possible, and they want to know you.

While you may regularly attend one particular constituent church, make an effort to occasionally visit the others as well. Becoming involved in the broader church community-both through Sabbath worship and social events-helps foster trust, support, and a shared sense of mission. Church attendance/membership should follow the policy of your Union Education Code.
