Wright SBDM Policies

 

A copy of the SBDM Council by-laws and policies, minutes of meetings, Wright and Shelby County School Improvement Plan, recent assessment results and School Report Card are available in the foyer of the school office.  The Council meetings are open to the public.

KERA, the Kentucky Education Reform Act, requires each public school in the state to establish a school-based decision making council.  This council is comprised of two parents, three teachers and the principal or administrator.

The school-based decision making process gives parents, teachers and principals at each school substantial control over how that school operates.  Under KERA, each school is permitted to find the most effective ways to achieve the goals set for all students.

The council, advised by the school's staff, makes policies on curriculum, instructional practices, schedules for the school's staff and students, uses of school space, discipline and classroom management and extracurricular programs.  The council also decides what instructional materials the school will use, what support services the school will provide for its students; and how many people the school will employ for each job classification.  The meetings of the council are open to the public, and all interested persons may attend.
