School Community Council
What is a School Community Council?
Every school in the Cache County School District has a School Community Council (SCC) or a trust land committee. This council consists of the principal, teachers elected by their peers, and a majority of parents elected by other parents of students at the school.
The SCC plays a vital role in supporting student achievement by developing plans to address the school’s most significant academic needs. These plans, such as the School LAND Trust plan and school improvements plans, are submitted to the local school board for approval and funded by an annual dividend from the permanent State School Fund. “LAND” stands for Learning and Nurturing Development.
The council acts as an advisory body to the school, fostering collaboration among parents, teachers, and administrators. Parents serve as the primary advocates for children, ensuring that diverse community viewpoints and values are represented.
SCC meetings are open to the public, and everyone is welcome to attend. Agendas are posted online one week before meetings, and meeting minutes are made publicly available for review.

Join us!
Juniper Ridge has a very supportive School Community Council. Parents are encouraged to join the School Community Council to play an active role in their child’s education. Elections are held annually, and interested parents should contact the school principal or current council chair for more information. Notices about open positions are made in the spring.
Serving on the council is an opportunity to collaborate with educators and other parents to improve the school’s programs and environment. No prior experience is necessary - just a commitment to student success and community engagement.
Please contact Principal Randy Bennion email: randy.bennion@ccsdut.org if you are interested in serving on the School Community Council.
