What is the meeting about?  This will be the last general meeting of the year, as well as the AGM. At this meeting we will be voting on 2 very critical aspects for running and maintaining the PAC - updates to the constitution and bylaws, and the new executive.  To maintain a healthy and functioning PAC, we need to have as many parents involved as possible in both deciding on the framework and regulations that govern how the PAC functions, and in actually managing the day-to-day business in the PAC. 

YOUR voice is important.  As a parent or guardian, YOU are a member of the Parent Advisory Council (PAC) and are welcome and encouraged to attend the monthly PAC meetings.

Meeting Agenda: June 2023

NOMINATIONS FOR NEW EXECUTIVE

Thank you to all those who have already allowed themselves to be nominated for executive positions. 

We are still taking nominations for all positions but are in CRITICAL need of another nomination for Co-President. 

Please consider your ability to take on this very important role. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact the PAC at prospectlakepac@gmail.com

PROPOSED PAC CONSTITUTION AND BYLAW AMENDMENTS

At our upcoming June AGM, we would like to propose amendments to our PAC Constitution and Bylaws.  Please take a moment to read them over and familiarize yourself with them as there have been many changes.  There will be a vote at our meeting to approve the amendments made.  Please take a moment to read these documents over.
