The Superintendent’s Advisory Councils (SACs), which include the Teacher Advisory Council, the School Leader Advisory Council and the Family Advisory Council, are facilitated by the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) on an annual basis. The SACs represent a diverse group of teachers, school leaders and family members who reflect the educator workforce and student population from across the city, including both DC Public Schools and public charter schools. The members of the SACs work alongside OSSE's senior leadership, to provide insight, feedback and advice on issues that impact students, educators, classrooms and schools across the District.
For questions about the Superintendent’s Advisory Council, please contact Megan Dumond at [email protected].
