In our work to best meet all students’ needs, we recognize our success requires working collaboratively with education and parent partners to support and promote well-being within school settings and the community. Minnetonka Schools welcomes and solicits discussions and diverse input into its work to best reach and support all students. The District values parent and community stakeholder partnerships and is fortunate to have extensive parent and community support. With the School Board and Superintendent Dr. Dennis Peterson’s support, Minnetonka will be establishing a Mental Health Advisory Committee.

Our goal is to establish a committee that will engage key community stakeholders along with student and parent partners. We hope to also bring in community expert resources to partner in this critical work. The key objectives for this Mental Health Advisory Committee will be:

• To advise, support and pose critical questions to the District and community
• Act as communication link to the District and community
• To assist in further assessing needs and analyzing data
• To review and establish goals
• To make recommendations
• To inform the District of children’s mental health services
• To be leaders and share knowledge and expertise
