Principals’ Staff Committee

The Principals' Staff Committee works on behalf of the Chesapeake Executive Council to translate their vision into policy and action. The PSC accepts items for Executive Council consideration and approval, sets agendas for Executive Council meetings, provides briefings to the signatories of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement and provides policy and program direction to the Management Board.
