Elections will be held at the May, PAC Annual General Meeting on Tuesday May 22nd, 2018 at 7:00 PM in the school library. You must attend in person to vote (no proxy voting) and nominations may be received at the meeting.  

If you are interested in running for a position, wish to nominate someone (please get their permission first) or have any questions, please contact the Chair of the Nominating Committee, Jenny Eastman at prospectlakepac@sd63.bc.ca .
