School Improvement Council (SIC)
In South Carolina, a School Improvement Council is an advisory council to the principal and school on issues related to school improvement. By law, every K-12 public school in South Carolina must have and SIC that is made up of a parent, teacher, and community representative. The principal is always an ex-officio member, and the SIC may create additional ex-officio positions. At SIES, members are voted in for a two-year term. Terms are staggered to allow leadership continuity among the council.
