BTU School Site Council Resources
The School Site Council (SSC) plays a critical role in hiring of staff, reviews and advises on the budget, and can waive the provision of the collective bargaining agreement or any School Committee rule regulation.

If you are on a School Site Council, BPS provides the below resources to assist you:

What is the CPC?
Made up entirely of current BPS parent/caregiver volunteers, the Citywide Parent Council (CPC) of Boston Public Schools is the official voice of all our 38,000 families. The CPC is the umbrella organization of each of our 125 schools’ School Parent Councils (SPCs), and we are constituted by the elected representatives from each of our schools. We advocate as one voice for all of our of students and their families.
