Parent Advisory Council (PAC)

Our Parent Advisory Council is made up by parents and guardians with common interests. Their desire is to maintain an active parent community and help launch a parent culture that impacts our students' education, as well as help to inspire a positive school culture. This parent group aims to meet regularly to plan and host actions/activities to achieve the goals they have created.
