Hale Councils - HCC & SSC
The school site governing body of Hale Charter Academy known as Hale Charter Council or HCC serves as a representative democracy. The mandate of HCC, consisting of stakeholders of Hale, is to oversee the implementation of the guiding mission, vision, strategic plan and school-wide goals. In order to do so, HCC shall be empowered to operate as the principal school site decision-making body in regard to school-wide policies, programs and procedures within the authority of the Local District Superintendent and LAUSD Board of Education. The administration is empowered to enforce the day-to-day operational issues at the school site. The administration initiates, through the school-wide committees, and carries out the policies and procedures approved by the HCC. The governance structure is designed to foster participation by all stakeholders and to ensure the local school control and accountability.
The School Site Council or SSC, is the decision-making body that is responsible for the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) by insuring its development, annual review, updates that outlines the academic programs, supports services, and the federal funds that are used to improve academic performance of all students that are at risk of failing.
