Our School Council plays a vital role. It provides a forum through which parents/guardians can contribute to improving student achievement, school performance and accountability, and enhancing the overall student school experience. Parental involvement in a child’s education has been shown to have a significant effect on their success. The partnership between the school and parent representatives on the School Council support and foster mutual understanding and positive interactions within our school community. Everyone wins!
