School Site Council
What is School Site Council?
The School Site Council (SSC) is a team of parents, teachers, school staff, and the principal who work together to improve student achievement. SSC members review school goals, analyze student data, and help plan how certain funds are used to support all students.

What do SSC members do?
To serve on the School Site Council (SSC) is to be a vital part of your school's success. Council members are responsible for:
Making important financial decisions, including how specific school funds are used.
Reviewing and approving the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA).
Representing the community by providing input on school priorities and programs.
This means attending a few meetings a year and participating in respectful discussions and votes that directly impact the school and its students.
