WHAT IS THE LOCAL SCHOOL ADVISORY TEAM (LSAT)?
A Local School Advisory Team (LSAT) is a group of elected and appointed members that shall exist in every DCPS school. The team consists of parents, teachers, non-instructional school staff, and a community member to advise the principal on matters that promote high expectations and high achievement for all students.
The primary responsibilities of the LSAT include: advising the principal on school priorities, budget decisions, and the Comprehensive School Plan (CSP).
Additionally, last year the LSAT was dual-hatted and also served a Stoddert’s Reopen Community Corps (RCC), a body designated by DCPS with advising and supporting the school leadership on their plans for a successful reopening. The LSAT will continue to serve as the RCC this academic year, advising and supporting Principal Rivas on Stoddert’s reopening plans.
