School Advisory Council leaders describe school‑improvement walks; board invited to observe
Jennifer Collins described the district's School Advisory Councils (SACs), noting that each school has a SAC composed of teachers, support staff, parents, community members, faith‑based partners and, at high schools, students. Collins said SACs meet at least quarterly to review school improvement plans and identify supports.

Collins and the superintendent explained school‑improvement walks, multi‑hour visits in which district teams observe classrooms using a calibrated instrument, compare observations across teams and use findings to develop action steps. "We conduct school improvement walks at many of our schools. We've done 30 to date this school year," Collins said.

Board members asked whether they could attend improvement walks; Collins and staff encouraged board participation and said schedules can be coordinated.

The briefing was informational and intended to show how district teams gather evidence and support continuous instructional improvement at the school level.
