Attention all SCS Elementary and Middle School parents:
This budget year our School Board was also able to address the last step in our district’s quest to eliminate the request for voluntary 
parent fees. As recently as 2011, our elementary and middle schools were asking parents to pay a $45 voluntary fee to help provide funding to their schools. This practice was done in order to offset a lack of funding within our district’s budget for things needed at the school level.
This year, we are proud to say that our School Board has eliminated fees entirely from our elementary and middle schools. Through sound fiscal planning and managing our budget over the past several years, we were able to eliminate the need for these fees.

Our Transportation Department has spent the majority of the day looking at road conditions in the White House, Millersville and Portland areas. We are still seeing significant accumulation of ice on several roadways that multiple buses travel in those areas.
We will assess road conditions tomorrow to make a decision for school on Wednesday. We are hopeful that the warmer temperatures forecasted for Tuesday will clear the remaining problem roadways.

School Support Organizations (SSO) are a valued resource and are much appreciated supporters of our students and schools. Volunteers with our School Support Organizations work hand in hand with our schools and are required to follow certain guidelines and policies as defined in the Tennessee Code Annotated 49-2-603 (School Support Organization Financial Accountability Act - S.S.O.F.A.A.) and Sumner County Board of Education Board Policy 2.404, titled: School Support Organizations.
School Support Organizations must be approved by the Principal of the school they are affiliated with and the Director of Schools or his designee. Each SSO must provide documentation annually that shows their financial activities, the volunteers in charge of the SSO, that the SSO is a registered non-profit in good standing and, if applicable, has been federally recognized and retains active status as a 501(c)(3) organization.
It is recommended that the SSO contact a CPA or attorney for guidance in organization formation and required annual State and Federal filings. At a minimum, the SSO should contact the State of Tennessee and the IRS for guidance on what annual paperwork is required.
Available on this page are the SSO required forms, the SSO operating manual (published by the TN Comptroller鈥檚 Office), frequently asked questions and other general information regarding the operations and activities of a School Support Organization.
All annual SSO paperwork is due after the fiscal year end of June 30th and no later than August 1st each year. Please send all paperwork to:
