Newly Formed Superintendent's Teacher Advisory Council Begins Meeting

The Cherokee County School District’s newly formed Superintendent’s Teacher Advisory Council provides educators with the opportunity to share valued feedback.

Through a series of roundtable meetings, Council members will provide Superintendent Mary Elizabeth Davis with professional insights to support CCSD’s mission to become the highest-performing school district in Georgia.  Members also will be called upon to share what they have learned from the Council meetings by making regular reports in school faculty meetings and, in turn, bring back feedback to share with the Superintendent and Council.  The Council members were selected by their peers and include teachers from all of CCSD’s schools and centers.

Congratulations to our Council members, who began their service today at the group’s first meeting!  Thank you to our School Board for its longtime investment in ensuring our students learn from educators with unparalleled talent and unmatched dedication.  Starting later this week, we will begin introducing the Council members to our community by sharing profiles of members on our website and social media.
