School Councils are important partners in education. School Councils provide a forum through which parents and other members of school communities can contribute to improving student achievement and well-being and enhance the accountability of the education system. We welcome the participation of all parents and guardians.
Our School Council meets nine times a year. Our School Council focuses on information sharing and discussion, and sometimes, how to improve student opportunities through fundraising. At each meeting, school administration provides an update on school- related activities and council members may identify topics of interest for presentation/discussion at future meetings or extra special interest sessions. Meetings will be 6:15 pm on Wednesdays with committees meeting at 6 pm as required. Dates set for 2019: September 17, October 9, November 13, December 11. Dates for 2020: January 15, February 19, April 8, May 13 and June 10.
