Campus Advisory Councils

Campus Advisory Councils are committees of parents, students, business and community representatives, teachers, principals, and other campus staff. The formation of CACs is required by state law (Texas Education Code, §11.251). Specific functions of CACs include providing review and comment on:

• Campus Educational Program

• Campus Performance

• Campus Improvement Plan

• Campus Staff Development Plan

• Campus-Level Waiver Requests to the State

• Campus Budget

CAC Mission

The mission of CAC is to promote excellence in education for all students through broad-based representation. CAC provides valuable input to principals, who ultimately have decision-making responsibility for their campuses.

Citizens communications will be scheduled at or near the beginning of each meeting. In order to ensure sufficient time to complete business, a maximum of 15 minutes will be provided for citizens communications each limited to two minutes.
