School Site Council
California Education Code 52852 requires that a school site council shall be established at each school that participates in Title I or LCFF supplemental/concentration grant funding. The school site council shall be composed of the principal and representatives of: teachers selected by teachers at the school; other school personnel selected by other school personnel at the school; parents of pupils attending the school selected by the parents; and, in secondary schools, pupils selected by pupils attending the school.
School site councils meet regularly to complete the following activities:
- Elect officers
- Develop/revise by-laws (optional)
- Advise the annual revision of the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)
- Recommend the annual revisions to the SPSA for Board approval
- Approve revisions to the site categorical budget and SPSA
- Monitor the implementation of the site categorical budget and activities in the SPSA
- Annually evaluate the activities in the approved SPSA
