SSAC
The RPS 205 Superintendent's Student Advisory Council (SSAC) is a group of students selected from each high school.
The purpose of the SSAC is to present student voice to the Superintendent and the School Board, and to represent the Superintendent in Rockford public high schools and in the community. The SSAC meets regularly with the Superintendent and participates in ambassadorial events within their schools, the district, and the community.
Their goal is to bridge the gap between their peers and RPS 205 administration by elevating student voice directly to the Superintendent and educating their peers about the workings of the district.
