What is a Local School Improvement Council?
Local School Improvement Councils (LSIC) are required per W.Va. Code § 18-5A-2. These councils exist at each public school in West Virginia. Membership of the LSIC is comprised of teachers, service personnel, families, business, and community representatives. An election occurs annually for membership. The LSIC promotes innovations and improvements in the teaching and learning environment in your child's school through providing forums of voices of the education stakeholders in a community, as school employees work alongside families, businesses, and community representatives.
