School Site Council: New Members Needed! What is School Site Council? The School Site Council is an elected leadership group at each school site whose purpose is to coordinate the supplemental funding while monitoring student academic progress and achievement. This is done primarily through the development of the SPSA. Elected leadership group: this means that elections must take place to vote for members; parents will vote for parent members, students will vote for students members and teachers/staff will vote for teacher/staff members. Coordinate the supplemental funding: this means that the members will help decide how some of the money received by the school will be spent. Monitoring student academic progress and achievement: this means that before they decide how money is spent, the members must look at students’ academic progress and achievement, using data from sources like SBAC, MAP, DWA, Lexile Levels to make sure the money is spent to help students continue to grow academically. SPSA: The SPSA is the Single Plan for Student Achievement, where the school describes the programs and resources it is using to help support students’ academic growth Students who are interested in participating in School Site Council, please use the link below: https://goo.gl/forms/O4JN6KAD09gafD4U2 Respect Responsibility Safety
