St. Mary Education Committee

The St. Mary Education Committee (SMEC) meets on a monthly basis to support the operations and goals of the school system. Committee members are appointed by the Episcopal Vicar and work in conjunction with the System Director and the Superintendent of the Diocese of Owensboro to lead the school system. The goal of SMEC is to further the Church’s educational ministry, foster the mission of the school, provide direction and stability, represent the stakeholders, and support the administration.

Per the SMEC by-laws:
All regular meetings of the Committee will be open to the parents of SMSS students and members of the participating parishes.  Permission for non-members or other visitors to address the Committee will be limited to those whose petition has been approved for the agenda in advance of the meeting.
