There is more than $3 million in special funds annually funneled
into Luther Burbank. The role of the Site Council is to not only
oversee the use of these funds, but to also determine the goals
of the school, direct its overall efforts towards fulfilling
these goals and offer input to school administration.
The Site Council is made up of seven teachers, five students, at
least five parents (but, more are invited to attend and
participate), members of staff and the principal.
Meetings are the first Monday of each month at 4:05 p.m. in Room
J-3.
All elementary and middle schools have decided to participate in
the School Based Coordinated Program (SBCP) using School
Improvement Program funds; therefore, they are REQURIED to have
School Site Councils. (Some high schools have school site
councils to administer other programs and funds. The bylaws
of these councils govern their activities.) The Council are made
up of parents, students, school staff and classroom
teachers.
