Calhoun City Schools hosted its annual Fall School Governance Team (SGT) Training on Monday, reaffirming the district’s commitment to student achievement through collaboration, transparency, and strong community partnerships.

The event brought together members of the School and System Governance Teams, the Board of Education, and the College & Career Academy Board of Directors to strengthen their understanding of governance roles and engage in strategic planning for the district’s future.

Throughout the training, participants discussed several key topics, including the role of School Governance Teams, succession planning, Board policies and self-assessment, preparation for Cognia Accreditation, Charter System funds and renewal, and feedback for the 2026–2027 school calendar.

As part of Calhoun’s Charter System, School Governance Teams play a vital role in shaping local decisions and fostering innovation to meet the diverse needs of students across the district.

Superintendent Dr. Michele Taylor expressed her appreciation for the dedication and leadership of those involved.

“We are grateful for the commitment of our exemplary Board of Education, School and System Governance Team members, and College & Career Academy Board of Directors,” said Dr. Taylor. “Their collaborative leadership and focus on continuous improvement help ensure that every decision we make supports student achievement and the future of our community.”
