What is School Council?
Parent representation on the School Council is essential as the role of this position is to assist principals by reviewing the school building budget and developing the school improvement plan. Councils may also take on other responsibilities, including policy making, as granted by the local school committee. Councils’ school improvement plans are submitted to the local school committee for review and approval.
