S.I.C Parent Invitation 2019 - 2020
School Improvement Council (S.I.C) at DFES - May 13th, 2019
DFES Beliefs about Family
We believe positive and integrated relationships between families and educators are crucial, and plentiful opportunities for collaboration among students, families, teachers, and administrators are essential.
What is the S.I.C You May Ask?
- The S.I.C serves as an advisory committee to Mr. Scott and the DFES faculty.
- Unlike PTO's/PTA's and other voluntary school organizations, S.I.C's are mandated by law to exist in every public school in South Carolina.
What are the Key Functions of the S.I.C?
- The S.I.C works with Mr. Scott to develop and implement a five-year school improvement plan.
- S.I.C monitors and evaluates success in reaching goals and objectives outlined in the school renewal plan.
- S.I.C assists Mr. Scott in writing the narrative for the School report Card.
Your Invitation to Join S.I.C
We are currently seeking a minimum of 12 parents who are willing to serve the DFES S.I.C for the 2019-2020 school year. Ideally, we would like to have 2 parents per grade level so that all age groups are represented and voices heard as we make decisions impacting our Fox Cubs.
In the past our SIC has meet on Wednesday evening from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm. on Wednesdays. As a parent of two Fox Cubs I recognize that meeting during the evening can present a challenge with scheduling conflicts. For the upcoming 2019 - 2020 school year meetings will be held the 2nd Wednesday in each month from 7:15 a.m. - 8:15 a.m. Breakfast to be served during these mornings for council members. The meeting dates are as follows:
Wednesday, August 14th
Wednesday, September 18th
Wednesday, October 9th
Wednesday, November 13th
Wednesday, December 11th
Wednesday, January 8th
Wednesday, February 12th
Wednesday, March 11th
Wednesday, April 8th
Wednesday, May 13th
Wednesday, June 3rd
Our first meeting will be held in July to prepare for the upcoming school year. Please click the link below and add your name if you are interested in joining or have further questions. Thanks for your consideration and
We develop students who care about the world we live in and express critical thinking through natural curiosity and wonder.
