WHO IS THE PROSPECT LAKE PAC?
WHAT DO WE DO?
The Prospect Lake Elementary School
Parent Advisory Council (PLES PAC) is the officially recognized voice of
parents within our school community. It provides an opportunity for parents and
legal guardians to become familiar with, and participate in, the workings of
the school. Being involved provides the opportunity to exchange ideas
among parents, school administration and staff, discuss educational and general
school issues, as well as offering a chance to become involved in a variety of
social functions.
The PLES PAC also facilitates several
programs, such as Emergency Preparedness, Hot Lunch Programs, Fundraising,
etc. As parents, we recognize that our children’s success at school
depends on our interest, support, and involvement in their education.
At Prospect Lake, the PAC plays a
vital role in connecting parents to our school community.
Typical activities of our PAC include:
- organizing fundraising and community-building
events,
- assessing parent and staff opinions and ideas regarding
school goals and expenditure of PAC funds,
- helping promote school goals through parent education,
- communicating with other PACs within the context of
District COPACS about issues pertaining to the entire Saanich School District
(SD63)
As a parent/legal guardian of a child
in attendance at Prospect Lake Elementary, you are automatically a voting
member of the Prospect Lake PAC. You can play a very important role in your
child's education and school by being an active participant within the PAC.
Your participation and support will
not only enrich our school and community, but also the lives of you and your
children. We invite you to get involved!
