Join us for an Important PAC Meeting Tonight!
by Prospect Lake PAC - Thursday, 22 October 2015, 11:38 AM
 

Join us tonight at 6:45 for tea, snacks and networking with fellow parents and caregivers. Meeting begins at 7:00 PM.

One of the key items on the agenda for tonight will be discussing and voting on which items our PAC will fund from the staff wish list for this year. This is where the largest portion of the fundraising dollars that we work so hard as a PAC to raise during the year goes, so have your say! 

A copy of the Staff Wish List is attached.

All families with children at Prospect Lake Elementary are part of the school's PAC and are welcome to join us!

Following is the agenda for tonight's meeting:
