BECOME A LASA CAC REPRESENTATIVE

by Newsletter Comment Closed

We are looking for community members, parents, and alumni to be a part of the LASA Campus Advisory Council (CAC) for a term of 2 years starting in September 2026. Committee meetings are held after school the first Wednesday of the month throughout the school year and run about 1 hour. Fill out an application here: https://www.austinisd.org/advisory-bodies/cac/application. The deadline to apply is April 13, 2026.

Any current LASA parent (or incoming 2026 parent) can apply to be a parent representative. We are also looking for a community member who has no current student at LASA, does not work for LASA and lives in AISD. This would be a great way for an alumni parent (or student!) to stay connected with the school!

You can find more information about the CAC on the AISD CAC page and on the LASA CAC page.
