Douglas County School District recognizes the importance, shared responsibility, and partnership between family, schools, and community. Parental (including guardians and other members of the student’s family involved in the student’s education) involvement in the education of students contributes greatly to achievement, and to the positive school environment and experience. An important piece of parent and family engagement is School Accountability Committees (SACs).
In 2009, the State of Colorado passed SB 09-163, the Education Accountability Act. This legislation mandates that every public school have a School Accountability Committee (SAC). In 2013, the state passed SB 13-193, legislation focused on increasing parent engagement in public school, which added to the statutory responsibilities of the SAC.
All community members are welcome to attend any or all SAC meetings throughout the year. Each year, PTIO coordinates with SAC to hold a join meeting. The Saddle Ranch Elementary PTIO is YOUR organization. It is run by you, supports what you care about and is successful because you participate. If you’re a parent or teacher, you are a member of the PTIO! We work together to:
