Accreditation Update: ISER Approved by Board of Trustees
SCC shared its draft Institutional Self-Evaluation Report (ISER) with the Los Rios Board of Trustees during the Wednesday, November 10 board meeting. College leaders presented the process for creating the ISER and the highlights of the self-evaluation process, including the Quality Focus Essay which describes notable efforts to improve student success. The Board voted to approve the ISER, which will be submitted to the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) in December. The preparation and submission of the ISER is the first component of the upcoming review process for reaffirmation of accreditation. Learn more about the college’s accreditation here.

No Spring 2022 Parking Permits
To help reduce the barriers for students who need to access district and college facilities (including in-person classes or student support services), semester and daily parking permits will not be sold during the Spring 2022 semester. In addition, new employee parking permits will not be distributed and your current permit will remain valid for the spring. While you will not be ticketed for a lack of permit, students and employees will be required to park in designated student or staff parking spaces. Los Rios Police will enforce violations in red zones and other restricted areas, metered or timed parking, disabled parking, and violations that impede traffic or block access.
