PAC meetings are held the first Tuesday of every month in the School Library, on the 2nd floor of the West End Community Centre at 7:00pm promptly.
The PAC plays a very important role in the educational experience of our children. It provides an opportunity for parents to share their observations, advice, or concerns, while at the same time listening to what is occurring in the school and obtaining valuable information on significant educational issues.
The PAC is the opportunity to strengthen the relationship between parents, teachers and administrators. It is your opportunity to hear directly from the Principal, teachers, parents or expert speakers on educational, social and community issues.
What is PAC?
The Parent Advisory Council operates as a non-profit organization.
