Pursuant to Resolution No. R-2001-93, members must reside or work in Hollywood, or be known for their countywide interest in education. Further, persons of diverse perspectives shall be represented on the Education Advisory Committee, including parents of school-age or pre-school-age children, educators, business people, and persons with a background and knowledge in child development and/or education-related fields.
