Welcome

Welcome Message

Welcome back and a special welcome to all our new families.  My name is Kelly Barr and I am proud to be your Chair of our School Council this year! 

A little about me, I have 2 sons, Morgan and Wyatt.  I have been involved in School Council for 7 years.  My oldest son Morgan is in Grade 6 and I started when he was in SK while Wyatt is now in Grade 4.  I started Council as a Parent Rep, then Secretary, after that Treasurer and the last 2 years I’ve held the position of Chair.  My main purpose of joining Council was to get to know and feel comfortable with our teachers and for them to feel the same with me.  

Over the years, School Council has provided the breakfast program, help supply I Pads, smart boards, music equipment, buying school Jerseys & shirts and much more.  We’ve helped teachers with funds to take class trips, purchase extra tools for their classrooms, support graduations and special events by running our fundraisers, hot lunch and movie/dance nights all year long.  It really is a rewarding feeling!

I truly believe parent involvement is key to success in school!  Kids love to see their parents involved!

School Council has elected members made up of parents, staff and community.  You don’t need to be an elected member to join our meetings and participate in discussions and events. 

Our Council meetings will be held the 2^nd Tuesday of every month at 6:00.  All is welcome!   We encourage you come to at least one meeting or more!  If meetings are not your thing please let us know if volunteering is!!!!
