The SLT Role
SLT is responsible for developing a school’s Comprehensive Educational Plan (CEP). Here's the link to iPlan portal.
The SLT makes a yearly evaluation of the principal’s record of developing an effective, shared decision-making relationship with the SLT members during the year. This evaluation is given to the community district or high school superintendent.
The SLT is not responsible for the hiring or firing of school staff. However, according to Chancellor’s Regulation C-30, the SLT must be consulted prior to the appointment of a principal or assistant principal.
Visit the SLT support site (weblink) to get the toolkit, bylaws, training modules, and other resources.
