Horizon School Advisory Council

Meeting Agenda

SAC meeting + Auction Committee Meeting – April 30, 2026

We had a combined SAC meeting and auction committee meeting because the auction is only 3 weeks away! (May 21, at The Tranzac).

SAC meeting highlights

Principal’s update

Lesley said that she’s heard from the board that Horizon’s staffing numbers will not change for the 2026-27 school year, so we’ll have the same number of teachers.

Lesley said parents could feel free to get in touch with questions/concerns as always. In general when it comes to the latest announcements from the board (i.e. the number of trustees being cut in half, teachers being cut), she knows the same things we know – whatever is reported in the media or from the board itself.

Teacher update

Claire said that Horizon is in the “quieter” period between Town and the end of year preparations. 

Camp prep: There will be an info night with specific details like what to pack, what not to bring, times of bus departures etc. Also there will be a swim test locally coming up (date TBD) as well as a swim test when the kids arrive at Camp.

Upcoming dates:

• TBD – traveling stage performance 

• May 21 – auction

• May 28 TENTATIVE DATE – SAC meeting plus Camp Wahanowin info night

• June 9-12 – Camp Wahanowin

• June 18 – Grade 8 grad
