School Improvement Council

Royal Live Oaks Academy's School Improvement Council (SIC) serves to
  • assist in the development, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the five-year School Improvement Plan (also known as the "School Renewal Plan" or "Strategic Plan"); 
  • assist in the preparation of yearly Plan updates;   
  • assist the school in the development and implementation of the School Reading Plan as required by the Read to Succeed Act;
  • write the annual SIC Report to the Parents, which is to be distributed no later than April 30 of each year;
  • prepare, together with the Executive Director, the annual narrative for the SC School Report Card;
  • provide advice on the use of school incentive award expenditures (if allocated by the legislature and awarded to the school);
  • provide other assistance as requested by the Executive Director or local school board.
