Thank you to the parents who joined last night's council meeting. It was the first in-person meeting since before covid and it felt exciting to be back face-to-face; it was also hybrid, allowing a zoom log-in as well.
All minutes will be posted on this site. Our next step for School Council is getting our COMMITTEES up and running, and that means we need parent volunteers to sign up for:
Fundraising, Safe and Caring Schools, Outreach & Volunteer, Parent Engagement, Reading Buddies, and Grade 5 Grad.
Here's our google sign up page; we ask everyone to sign up with their name and email address!
