We would like to thank everyone who came out to our first School Council meeting of the year last week. It was wonderful to have such a large turn-out and see so many new faces. Special thanks also go to the people who volunteered to serve as members of the Council executive for this year, and we’re please to let you know that we have Co-Chairs, two Ward 10 Reps, a Treasurer, two people who volunteered to head up some of the fundraising activities that School Council has supported for many years, and our Picnic For the Arts Coordinator. Thanks again to everyone who has volunteered to serve in these capacities!
One executive position that we are still looking to fill is Secretary – and we’re asking that everyone in our parent/caregiver community give this some thought. We have to have at least one person volunteer for this position, and ideally we’d love to have two people as we all know that attending every meeting isn’t always possible with busy families. Having two secretaries would allow for a lot more flexibility.
It’s truly not a hard position!! We have a template for Council meetings all set and ready to go and some of the information at School Council meetings is sent to the secretary afterwards for inclusion in the minutes – so all you need to do is ‘cut and paste’.
So please everyone give this some thought, and if you would be willing to act as our School Council Secretary, or Co-Secretary, please let Ms. Howe know.
Here are the dates for School Council meetings for this year (and they’re also in “Huron Happenings” as well). All meetings will start at 6:00pm and babysitting and pizza will be available for children.
