Iowa City Community School District
Superintendent's Student Advisory Council
This group provides the opportunity for student representatives from each of our high schools to engage with the Superintendent and district leadership for meaningful, two-way dialogue. It gives students a platform to share their perspectives, ideas, and concerns directly with administrators while gaining first-hand insight into district initiatives and decisions.
