CSAC - CATHOLIC SCHOOL ADVISORY COMMISSION

Also Known as CSAC

The School Advisory Commission assists the pastor and principal in the area of planning, policy formulation, finances, and development including public relations, marketing and evaluation. They offer suggestions and advice based on their role within the parish or larger community, their role as parents of children in the parish/Diocesan school, and their role as leaders.

A CSAC uses the collaborative model. This action is taken after they believe the recommendation will help the Catholic school provide the best faith-formation, education and other programs for the youth attending the school. They assist the administration of the school develop strategic plans for the future, monitor the expenditure of funds, formulate policy which helps the administration in the daily operation of the school, and are a constant source of positive public relations about the school.
