School Community Council Information 

The School Community Council (SCC) at Edgemont Elementary is one of several parent groups who work together to support the daily efforts to meet the needs of students, parents, and staff members. The SCC serves a unique purpose in helping to identify the most critical areas of academic needs at the school. They assist the school administration in reviewing student data and in developing goals as part of a larger School Improvement Plan to meet those areas of critical academic needs. These funds are provided by the Utah School Land Trust Program annually to schools, and parents on the SCC have a voice in how these funds are utilized at their neighborhood schools. If you have a desire to be a part of this work, then the SCC is the place for you! 

Time Commitment

The SCC meets 6-8 times during the school year for approximately 1 hour. (Exact dates and times will be determined by committee member availability and then posted on the school website.) This is a small time commitment that can have a great impact!

Invitation to Participate

Padres, nos gustaría invitarles a formar parte del Consejo Comunitario de la Escuela Primaria Edgemont. Este consejo está formado por padres, profesores y el director de la escuela. Juntos como un equipo, decidimos la mejor manera de asignar los fondos estatales de Land Trust que se distribuyen cada año a las escuelas en Utah. Este dinero se utiliza para la mejora de los alumnos y de la escuela. Los miembros del Consejo de la Comunidad tienen un mandato de dos años. Las elecciones para las vacantes del consejo de la comunidad se producen en el otoño de cada nuevo año escolar. Por favor, póngase en contacto con el director de la escuela, Harmony Kartchner, en harmonyk@provo.edu, si usted está interesado en convertirse en un futuro miembro del Consejo de la Comunidad.

School Land Trust Program

The School LAND Trust program brings tens of millions of dollars annually to academic programs in public schools across Utah. The funds are generated from school trust lands. These funds are the only discretionary funds many schools receive. The program runs entirely from this web site. Each public school in Utah elects a school community council consisting of parents, teachers, and the principal. Charter Schools have Trust Lands Councils. All councils have a two parent member majority. Each council carefully reviews student assessments and progress to decide which academic areas they want to focus on. Plans are developed to improve student academic performance in the identified academic areas with the annual School LAND Trust funds. The plans are approved by the council, submitted on this website, and approved by the local school board or chartering entity. Other Information: The Utah Legislature has assigned councils responsibilities for school safety and digital citizenship. As with other responsibilities of school community councils, it is intended that administrators, staff, and parents engage together to bring about the best possible result for students.
