School Councils
The A+ Education Reform Act (HB1187) established school councils in Georgia to bring communities and schools closer together in a spirit of cooperation to solve difficult education problems, improve academic achievement, provide support for teachers and administrators, and bring parents into the school-based decision-making process.
The management and control of public schools is the responsibility of local boards of education as stated in HB1187, with the principal serving as school leader. School councils serve to provide advice, recommendations, and assistance representing the community of parents and businesses.
