School Services of California Inc. (SSC) was founded in 1975 by Ken Hall, former Deputy Director of the Department of Finance during the Reagan administration. It has since evolved into the premier business, financial, management, and advocacy resource for educational agencies in California. From 1999 to 2014, our company was led by Ron Bennett. John Gray assumed the role of President in 2015. More than four decades of leadership by only three long-serving leaders has given the company and its employees the continuity necessary to provide a finely focused array of services to public education in California.
