The role of the Parent Advisory Council is to act in an advisory capacity. It is the officially recognized voice of parents of children registered at the school.
All parents/guardians of children attending Bayside are already voting members of the PAC. The primary duty of the PAC Executive is to act as a liaison between the principal, staff, and parents. You are encouraged to attend the monthly PAC meetings that are generally held the 2nd Monday of the month in the school library. If you are unable to attend a meeting, you can always contact one of your PAC Executive members.
Helping Out In The School
Get involved many ways! Sign-up here: http://signup.com/go/gNRSsAp
Here are just a few ideas:
Art Displays:
The walls of the school are filled with student artwork which needs to be changed on a regular basis. If you aren't afraid of climbing a step ladder and can offer a few hours a month, it would be most appreciated.
Athletics:
Coaching Support
Clubs
Do you have a skill or hobby you could share with Bayside students? Run a club at lunch or afterschool.
CPF:
Assisting with various Canadian Parents for French events.
Earthquake Committee
Help is needed to continue the work of having all necessary supplies in the event of a major emergency.
Fundraising
We wish to add fundraising efforts to support a variety of student activities.
Grade 8 Farewell:
A group of grade 8 parents will be needed to volunteer to help organize this event for the Grade 8s.
Library Helper:
The Library staff could use some helping hands to keep all the resources organized in the library.
PAC Lunch Helper
Four times a year, the PAC hosts a fun, themed lunch! Let us know if you can help out on these exciting days.
Staff Appreciation:
Each year a week is selected as Staff Appreciation Week. During this time the student's are encouraged to voice their appreciation through various activities. In addition, the parent's show their appreciation. Watch the newsletter to find out how you can help out.
Miscellaneous Jobs:
We are always in need of volunteers to help with miscellaneous jobs throughout the year. The jobs would be one time only and of a short duration.
