PAC MEETING MINUTES, FINANCIALS AND PRINCIPAL'S REPORT

Please check out the following links:

CLASS REPRESENTATIVES

We are still looking for 13 parent / guardians to be a PAC class representative for each class in the school. The class you choose should be one that your child is in. This job can be shared too!

Duties include: assisting the teacher with communication to parents, helping to organize class events, liaison between the PAC on classroom issues, communicating PAC news with your class, and organizing a group gift at Christmas and at the end of the year for those families wishing to participate. It would be helpful for the class rep to attend the monthly PAC meetings as well. If you are interested, please sign-up HERE. Any questions? Just email the PAC at prospectlakepac@gmail.com

GRADE 5 REPS

We are looking for a few parents / guardians to be the Grade 5 class representatives. This is different than the class rep role, as the Grade 5 Rep(s) are responsible for all communications between the Grade 5 students and families only; not the specific classes. Duties include: liaising with parents and school staff for grade 5 specific events and activities (ie. Grad clothing, the grade 5 class trip, graduation, and fundraising events). If you’re interested in helping with this role, please sign-up HERE. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the PAC Executive at prospectlakepac@gmail.com

ATTENTION GRADE 5 PARENTS

If you would like to be added to the Grade 5 contact list, please email wendy_bird@outlook.com and provide the following information: your name, email, and your child's name.

Emails will be sent out to all Grade 5 families (BCC’d so addresses are not shared) regarding any and all Grade 5 events. This could be fundraising activities, Grad wear, Grade 5 camp day, the yearbook, graduation and more.
Thank you to those families I have already heard from!

YEAR-ROUND FUNDRAISERS

Please help us raise funds for our children and school with these ongoing fundraisers:

Please save your receipts from Country Grocer and your Canadian Tire money. Place them in the bucket on top of the wooden PAC mailbox beside Mrs. Blackwell’s desk
