Volunteers Needed for Council Executive
Invitation to Join the School Parent Council
The next meeting is in January.
The Parent Council plays an important role in fostering collaboration between families and the school. It provides a forum for meaningful dialogue, input on school initiatives, and opportunities to strengthen our school community. Your participation ensures that diverse perspectives are represented and valued.
At this time, we are also seeking members to serve on our Parent Council Executive. These leadership roles are essential in guiding the work of the council and supporting school initiatives. The following positions are available:
Chair – Facilitates meetings, sets agendas, and acts as the primary liaison between the council and school administration.
Vice-Chair – Assists the Chair and assumes responsibilities in their absence.
Secretary – Records meeting minutes and manages council communications.
Whether you are interested in joining the executive or simply attending to learn more, we welcome your involvement.

One of the most important ways parents/guardians and community members can make a meaningful difference for students is by participating on the school council. Under the Education Act, a school council is a collective association designed to advise the principal and the CBE Board of Trustees on matters related to the school. School councils have legislated advisory and decision-making authority defined within the Education Act and the School Councils Regulation. They are different from Parent Societies & Associations, whose main function is to raise funds for the school. You can find more details in the CBE School Council Handbook.
