School Advisory Committee (SAC)

What is the PTSA?

PTSA - Parent Teacher Student Association (formerly known as SAC) - is a group of concerned ICS parents, teachers, administrators, and community leaders who work together to provide support to our school. PTSA contributes to the success and well-being of the ICS community by creating opportunities for school-wide activities, providing advice and assistance to the school administration, and fostering a welcoming environment for viable school and community relationships.

Who is involved?

All ICS parents, administrators, teachers, and interested community members are invited to participate in the PTSA meetings and activities. It's an open invitation – please come!
