What is a School Advisory Council?
The School Advisory Council (SAC) is a team of people representing various segments of our school’s community – parents, teachers, administrators, support staff, and community/business partners. The meetings are held the third Tuesday of the month at 6:30 a.m. at NHS. The public is welcome at all SAC meetings.
What is the role of SAC?
The SAC assists in the preparation and evaluation of the School Improvement Plan (SIP) and may also assist the principal with the annual school budget. The SAC reviews relevant data (which is much more than test scores), identifies problem areas, and develops improvement strategies, and monitors their implementation.
What is the School Improvement Plan?
Every school in the state of Florida is required to develop a School Improvement Plan. Each year our staff and SAC review all relevant data, which includes but is not limited to: state assessment data, progress monitoring, locally developed test scores, needs assessments, attendance records, discipline records, and other feedback as appropriate. From this data, we update our comprehensive plan with strategies for improvement.
