The School Improvement Council (SIC) serves as an advisory committee to a school's principal and faculty.

Unlike PTA/Os and other voluntary school organizations, councils are mandated by law to exist in every public school in South Carolina.

SICs play a key role in the education of our state's children, bringing together parents, educators and community stakeholders to work collectively to improve their local schools.
