School Council

The school council was created by the Education Reform Act of 1993 to open up a formal channel for dialogue between parents, teachers, principals and the community. The school council assists the building adminstration in:

  • identifying the educational needs of the students
  • reviewing the annual school budget
  • adopting educational goals for the school consistent with state educational policies
  • formulating a school improvement plan

The school council sets the stage for larger opportunities for parents to have a positive impact on student learning. There is an overwhelming body of research that indicates that students do better in school when their parents are involved in their education. The Essex Aggie School Council’s goal is to take on a leadership role in fostering parental and community involvement in the educational mission of the school.
