School Council
The establishment of school councils is intended to help local boards of education by bringing parents and the community together with teachers and school administrators to create a better understanding of and mutual respect for each other's concerns and share ideas for school improvement.
The A+ Education Reform Act of 2000 established school councils in Georgia to bring communities and schools closer together in a spirit of cooperation to:
- Solve difficult educational problems
- Improve academic achievement
- Provide support for teachers and administrators
- Bring parents into the school-based decision-making process
School Councils provide advice, recommendations, and assistance to principals and local boards of education. The law details the composition of the council, its responsibilities, and procedures for conducting business.
All parents are welcome to join and/or attend local school council meetings. Contact the school if you would like to participate.
