SSC
The Sonora School Site Council (SSC) is a decision-making body that represents all stakeholders of the school community. The school principal, teachers, other school personnel, and parents make up this group. Their primary responsibility is to identify common goals and assist the leadership team in establishing a plan to achieve the goals.
The key to a successful SSC depends upon a good working relationship among all members of the Council. The principal and teachers contribute background knowledge in instructional practices; parents provide the insights on how effective the school is working and how well their children understand their assignments. Other personnel at the school, such as counselors, instructional aides and clerical staff can share insights on how the school can function to support student learning.
As the school leadership team and SSC develop, monitor and revise the Single Plan for Student Achievement, the SSC allocates resources to support the plan. By working cooperatively we can ensure that each school site plan focuses resources upon improvement strategies, which guarantee that all students meet high standards.
