School Site Council

• Developing a School Plan: The SSC helps develop the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA), which outlines the school’s goals, actions, and resource allocation to improve student outcomes.
• Budgetary Input: The council has a say in how certain school funds are spent. This ensures that financial resources are used in alignment with the school’s academic priorities and the needs of the students.
• Continuous Monitoring: SSC monitors the implementation of the SPSA and evaluates its effectiveness. This ongoing process ensures the school is meeting its educational goals and provides the opportunity to make necessary adjustments.
• Fostering Engagement: By involving parents, teachers, and students, the SSC promotes collaboration among all stakeholders. This shared governance model encourages active participation and transparency in school decision-making.
• Ensuring Equity: SSCs help identify and address the needs of underperforming student groups, ensuring that programs and resources are equitably distributed to close achievement gaps.

• Shared Decision-Making: The SSC ensures that a variety of perspectives—administrators, teachers, parents, and students—are considered when making decisions about the school's direction, which helps build stronger community trust and engagement.
• Accountability: Having a council that monitors the implementation of programs helps the school stay accountable to its goals and to the use of public funds.
• Community Input: It empowers the school community to have a voice in decisions that directly affect student learning and well-being, thereby fostering a more inclusive environment.
• Alignment of Resources with Needs: The SSC ensures that financial and academic planning is directly aligned with student needs, making the allocation of resources more strategic and focused on improving educational outcomes.
