Burlingame Intermediate School Site CouncilThe BIS School Site Council (SSC) is a group of teachers, parents and classified school employees that work with the BIS Principal to develop, review and evaluate school improvement programs and school budgets. The members of the BIS School Site Council are elected by their peers within the school community in an open election, and members serve either two or three year terms.
Over the course of a year, the SSC considers the goals of the school community, the goals of the school district and works with the principal to evaluate the school’s progress toward those goals. In this evaluation, the council will consider school test scores, district test scores, other credible qualitative analysis on specific issues, attendance and discipline records, parent surveys, and input from teachers, students, parents and other school staff members.
In addition to academic planning, the SSC is also responsible for making decisions about parent engagement and safety -- School Plan for Student Achievement and the Comprehensive School Safety Plan, both of which are projects mandated by the State.
If you are interested in school policy, you might enjoy serving on the school site council in the future.
