WHAT IS A SCHOOL GOVERNANCE COUNCIL?
School Governance Councils are an opportunity for Connecticut schools to become centers of excellence that prepare all students for success. They represent the many interests of the families and staff that make up your school’s community. This is important because research has shown that:
-
Partnerships among families, school and community members can make a powerful contribution to greater student success.
-
No matter what their income or background, students with involved families tend to have higher grades and test scores, better attendance, and higher rates of homework completion.
