Student Involvement Committee

The Student Involvement Committee, abbreviated to SIC, was a sub-committee of PTSA. The Committee was made up of students who are PTSA members and would help PTSA communicate more effectively with ASB and have better relations with the student body. The SIC could be contacted at [mailto:ipolyhssic@gmail.com IPolyHSSIC@gmail.com]

Purpose
The Committee's purpose is to aid PTSA with getting the student body to engage with PTSA. This goal has been summed up as "being the 'S' in PTSA". Below is an unofficial and incomplete list of ideal work that the Committee would do.
 * Survey students and the school community to determine what type of activities would encourage more student involvement, and to determine student needs and concerns.
 * Develop a plan and calendar based on survey results for activities, events, and programs that meet students' needs and foster more student involvement.
 * Allow students to have an active voice by seeking input and feedback from all students.
 * Partner with clubs, other PTSAs, or community organizations to co-sponsor events, programs, or activities of interest and relevance to students.

Structure
Any student that is interested in being a part of the SIC could join. It is important to note that the Student Involvement Committee was not just a board of students.

Members
Because the SIC is a PTSA subcommittee, all students interested in joining the Committee must be PTSA members that have paid their dues. Once a student is an official PTSA member, they can request membership from the SIC Liaison, who would determine if they are qualified for a position in the SIC. It is important to note that the SIC is only open to current students. Incoming freshmen and graduates cannot join the Committee. Members are the go-to students when the Committee Board needs help.

Members would most likely be placed into groups of 5 or more with other members that have the same or similar skills. Members can volunteer to help with SIC-managed events and fundraisers. Any members that either missed a meeting for an event they volunteered for or two or more evening meetings would be removed from all SIC-specific communications, including the SIC mailing list and Remind group.

Board
Similarly to other members, Board members must attend every evening meeting and any event meetings they are helping to run. If a Board member missed more than two evening meetings or any event meetings, they would be reported to the PTSA Executive Board to determine the appropriate course of action.

Activities
Although the SIC has helped PTSA with events, the SIC has yet to host its own activity. It is also notable that the SIC has not had an official meeting since September 2018.
