School Community Council

 

What is SCC?

SCC stands for "School Community Council". The SCC is a group of parents, teachers and administration who collaborate in the development of:

  • LAND Trust Budget & School Improvement Plans (SIP)
  • Troubleshooting school issues brought forth by parents and faculty/administration (local examples are South Temple Safety and emergency preparedness)

Do I belong in SCC?

Yes! SCC meetings are a great way to know what's going on at Wasatch. We discuss school safety, academic progress, new program implementation, district news, and other important issues affecting our school. SCC meetings give YOU an opportunity to bring up questions or concerns to faculty, administration and your elected Salt Lake District board member. This year, SCC will be more important than ever as we discuss building our school community and welcoming new families!

When are meetings?

Most SCC meetings are the second Tuesday of the month at 4pm in the school library and on Zoom.

Can't make it to the meetings but want to stay informed? Email wasatchscc@gmail.com to receive important updates!

School Community Council Meetings

We invite you to attend the Wasatch Elementary SCC meetings to learn about our greatest academic needs, our School Improvement Plan, and help in the decision-making process for using LAND Trust funds. At Wasatch we also regularly discuss school safety, budgets, share District news, and talk about other important issues affecting our school. You have a voice! Together we can make a positive difference in the education of our children!
