School Site Council

What is the School Site Council?

 

The School Site Council (SSC) is a group of parents, teachers, school staff, and sometimes students (in middle and high schools) who work together to improve the school. The main purpose of the SSC is to help make decisions about how the school can best use its resources to support student learning and overall school improvement.

 

How does it work?

 

The SSC meets regularly throughout the school year to discuss the school's goals, review data on student performance, and decide on the best ways to support students. The council then helps develop a plan for how to spend money on things like programs, services, and resources that benefit students. By being part of the SSC, parents have a voice in shaping the school's priorities and ensuring that their children's needs are considered.

 

Who can participate?

 

Parents, teachers, school staff, and students (at some schools) are all welcome to participate in the SSC. Please contact our office or fill out our contact page form for more information. 

 
 

The main duties of the SSC are to:

  • obtain input from a variety of advisory committees
  • review school characteristics
  • analyze current educational practice and staffing
  • analyze student performance data
  • establish school goals
  • review available resources
  • select specific improvements
  • consider centralized services
  • recommend the SPSA to the local governing board
  • monitor progress (the main function of the council)
  • evaluate the effectiveness of planned activities
  • modify the SPSA as needed
