Keele Street Public School Advisory Council

2024-2025 Executive

Co-chairs: Jennifer Pong and Michelle Hyland

Co-Secretaries: Penny Adams-Marchetti and Kai Recollet

Treasurer: Chris Huggins

Who are we? Keele's School Advisory Council is made up of parents, guardians, community members, the principal, Keele St PS staff, and others. 

What do we do? The School Advisory Council is a volunteer advisory body. Our purpose is to work alongside the staff at Keele to enhance our children’s educational experience and to strengthen their sense of community, both within the school and around our neighbourhood. We advise the principal on a variety of issues and activities relating to school achievement, curriculum goals and priorities, school budget priorities, school safety, health and wellness initiatives, renovation plans, and after school activities.  We also organize fundraising and community-building events to purchase technology, books and other supplies to supplement and enhance the curriculum.

When do we meet? Meetings occur from 6:30-8pm in the library and on Zoom (BABYSITTING AND SNACKS ARE PROVIDED). Meeting dates for 2024-2025 are:

  • Wednesday, November 27, 2024

  • Wednesday, February 12, 2025

  • Wednesday, April 30. 2025

Everyone is welcome to join. Meetings are held in-person in the school library (next to the main office) and are also on Zoom (see weekly newsletter from Ms. Koziol and/or check your email for the Zoom link). 

Want to catch up on the meetings you haven't been able to attend? You can find the meeting agendas, minutes and presentations here.
