The Collaborative School Committee (CSC) is a decision making committee that includes the principal, teachers, parents/guardians, classified staff representative, and community or business members.

The method of decision-making is by consensus with the principal making impasse decisions. Decisions must be in compliance with the Agreement.

The scope of decision-making of the CSC will:

Act as the School Improvement and Accountability Committee (SIAC)

Improve school climate

Improve student achievement/approve the School Improvement Plan (SIP) through strategic planning

Recommend school design to the BOE

Review student discipline and safety measures

Approve the annual school budget to insure its alignment in the SIP and the school’s program design

    Provide input into the evaluation of the principal’s role as it relates to the CSC.

The scope of decision-making of the CSC will not be to:

Participate in matters related to individual staff or the day-to-day operations of the school

Make decisions concerning teacher workload, lunch, meetings, etc. These are now made by the Professional Standards Committee (PSC)

Provide input into the evaluation of school performance or the central administration

Be involved in issues relating to individuals (staff, students, or parents) within the school

Be involved in personnel issues (School Personnel Committee will stand alone in the current DPS/DCTA contract).
