Overview
The purpose of the School Governance Council is to provide parents, school staff, and community members with a leadership role in the management of the school.

The Council is responsible for making decisions regarding the strategic direction of the school including:
- Approve the school's strategic plan and updates
- Approve the annual budget and annual resource allocations
- Interface with the school's Title I Committee
- Manage the Request for Flexibility process
- Participate in hiring the Principal (in the case of a vacancy)
- Provide annual feedback on Principal performance
