The Arabian Ambassador Experience
Arabian Ambassador Academy Class of 2024
I really enjoyed this experience and learned so much from the program! The budgets, the positive impact the board does for the teachers as well as the community, getting to know Dr. Hall on a more personal level, and can't forget the bus ride!

I have loved every part of the Arabian Ambassador program. Financials, number of students, transportation, security, curriculum, and resources are all topics that I questioned before being in this program. I loved breaking down every level of education from elementary to high school. I’ve now been provided all the behind the scenes information to get my “why are we doing it this way” questions answered.
I would recommended this program to people. I’m constantly in conversations about the Administration and what should be changed from a community perspective. This program has taught me that it’s not just a flip of a switch and the Administration is FOR our students and their success!

I really enjoyed learning about all the aspects of the district and that a lot of the board members attended the meetings and we were able to ask them open ended questions directly.

The Arabian Ambassador program has given me invaluable insight into financial strategies, overall school goals, and unique characteristics of each individual school in the district. This experience has given me a better understanding to the vision and planning of SMCSC. I would strongly recommend this program to any SMCSC parent--especially those with concerns. This program has been very eye opening and all of the questions have been addressed during the program.

I've enjoyed hearing and seeing all of the layers of decisions that go into all the policies and decision making.

The Arabian Ambassador Academy has been incredibly insightful, providing valuable knowledge about the inner workings and behind-the-scenes dynamics of SMCSC. Understanding the intricacies of decision making processes within the school system has been eye opening. I believe every parent and community member would benefit from participating in this class if given the chance. With this understanding, grievances would likely diminish, fostering a more informed and constructive community dialogue.

This was such a fun and eye-opening experience. I appreciated and enjoyed the variety of topics we discussed. I have already recommended the program to a few friends with kids in the school system.
