School Health Advisory Council (SHAC)

Every Texas school district must have a School Health Advisory Council (SHAC) as required by Title 2, Chapter 28.004 of the Texas Education Code. This council exists to assist the district in ensuring that local community values are reflected in the district’s health education instruction.

The Godley Independent School District is authorized by the Board of Trustees to establish the SHAC in policies BDF (Legal) and EHAA (Legal).

The Board of Trustees shall appoint at least five members to the local SHAC.  A majority of the members must be persons who are parents of students enrolled in the district and who are not employed by the district.
