Local School Council

School Councils were initially developed in accordance with the State of Georgia’s H.B. 1187, the A+ Reform Act of 2000.  This seven member team is composed of two teachers, two parents, two community/business representatives, and the principal.  The purpose of the Council is to focus on student achievement and to obtain an increased awareness of Annistown and Gwinnett County Public Schools. 

The A+ Education Reform Act of 2000 established school councils in Georgia to “bring communities and schools closer together in a spirit of cooperation to achieve the following:

• Solve difficult education problems
• Improve academic achievement
• Provide support for teachers and administrators
• Bring parents into the school-based decision-making process
• School councils provide advice, recommendations, and assistance to principals and local boards of education. 

If you are interested in being a part of our council, please contact the school principal to share your interest.
