School Health Advisory Council (SHAC)

 

"A School Health Advisory Council (SHAC) is a group of individuals representative of segments of the community, generally appointed by the school district to serve at the district level. They provide advice on coordinated school health programming and its impact on student health and learning."

Every independent school district is required by law to have a School Health Advisory Council of which the majority of members must be parents who are not employed by the school district. (Title 2, Chapter 28, Section 28.004 of the Texas Education Code)
