School Improvement Council
In South Carolina, a School Improvement Council is an advisory council to the principal and school on issues related to school improvement. By law, every K-12 public school in South Carolina must have an SIC that is made up of parent, teacher, and community member representatives. The SIC meets once a month (virtually) to discuss pertinent issues, hear from district level speakers, review and edit the School Improvement Plan and provides input on budget requests. If you or someone you know is interested in serving on the SIC, please complete the Google form below. The deadline is Friday, September 25th at 3pm.
Have a Terrific Week!
Yours in Education,
Jocelyn Young
