Parent Association
All parents and guardians of Utah International students are members of the Parent Association and are invited to Parent Association meetings which are held during Community & Conference nights and if needed in May. Parents and Guardians are invited to serve on the Parent Council (or Charter Council) for the opportunity to be a member of a parent group that discusses and gives direct input regarding resources and expenditures allotted to schools from the state of Utah’s Land Trust funds, Title I funds as well as other funds received by the school. It is also an opportunity for parents to bring up concerns and give input into decisions that impact their child’s education and well being during their time at Utah International.
Currently, there are 4 open positions for 2027-28 school year. Elections will be held as needed on February 11th. More information will be posted as the day comes near.
If you are interested in being a part of the Parent Council (or Charter Council), please email
Usha Narra at unarra@utahinternational.org or
Alya Al Mashhadani at aalmashhadani@utahinternational.org.

School LAND Trust Funding Plan
In the state of Utah, monies from school trust lands are distributed to every public school through the School LAND Trust Program. We will receive about $50,000 from the School LAND Trust this year. The Parent Council for the previous year determines how each year’s Trust Lands grant will be spent.
