School Site Council
WHAT IS A SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL?
School Site Councils are the major part of the overall decision-making structure at our school. They are a very special group of people who are elected by their peers to represent the members of a school community. Their primary role is to guide the Site Planning Process to ensure that the needs of all students are specifically addressed in the School Site Plan. The School Site Plan is a living document that highlights the goals for the school and the programs and dollars that the school needs to turn these goals into a reality for students.
