Dear Potential MPHS AoAC Advisory Board Member:

I would like to invite you to serve on the advisory board which serves the Academy of Architecture and Construction at Mt. Pleasant High School. The advisory board will collaborate with the Academy teachers and students in order to prepare students for success in college and career while sharing industry trends and workplace standards.

As an Advisory Board member, you can directly impact the Academy by:

• Leveraging connections to raise awareness of the Academy and build community support
• Securing and coordinating a sequence of work-based learning experiences, including internships, based on the Academy’s work-based learning calendar
• Participating in a variety of classroom activities and student projects
• Finding, funding, or furnishing paid internship opportunities
• Collaborating with Academy leaders to enhance curriculum and professional development
• Providing strategic leadership and soliciting financial support from the community to ensure Academy sustainability
• Board meetings once per semester via Microsoft Teams or in-person

I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to further explain the roles and responsibilities of advisory board members and to discuss your interest in joining the group. Please share your availability for this conversation via email or phone listed below.

We are excited to work with you through the advisory board and we know you’ll make a tremendous impact on our academy students’ futures!
