Hoover’s School English Learner Advisory Committee (SELAC)

What is a SELAC Committee? Each school with 21 or more students classified as English Learners will have an established English Learners Advisory Committee, which may be a subcommittee of the School Site Council (SSC). The School English Learner Advisory Committee (SELAC) is a school-based committee that advises the principal and staff on programs and services for English Learners.

The School English Learners Advisory Committee (SELAC) is a school-based committee that advises the principal and staff on programs and services for English Learners. The SELAC also submits a site plan for English Learners to the Schoolsite Council for consideration in the School Plan for Student Achievement. At least two members of the SELAC represent the school in the District English Learners Advisory Committee (DELAC) and attend monthly DELAC meetings. For more information from SJUSD click here.

School Site Council

School Site Council (SSC) is composed of parents, teachers, and the principal. Committee members are elected by our peers.

The SSC is responsible for recommending the proposed Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) to the Board of Education for approval. The SPSA outlines the school’s instructional program and how it works to improve student achievement. It also ties the school’s funding/expenditures to student needs.

The SSC also reviews school programs to make sure they meet federal and state guidelines and reviews school data to help evaluation the effectiveness in raising student achievement.

Anyone is welcome to attend the SSC meetings.  They are typically held once a month.  For more information and the dates of the meetings, visit Hoover’s website.
