Finalizing the School Council By-laws
The draft version of our School Council by-laws were presented and discussed at last Wednesday's School Council meeting.
You are invited to view the final draft . . .
. . . and pass along any comments or concerns you may have to Lori Lyn Adams () before November 12.
From this, we will compile a final document, which will be discussed and voted on at the November 19th meeting of the School Council.
Some background: School councils in Ontario are required to have by-laws in place to—at the very minimum—address election procedures, the filling of vacancies, conflict of interest guidelines, and conflict resolution. Executive members of the Fern Avenue Public School Council, plus interested parents, met late in September with a representative of PIAC to further the development of our School Council’s by-laws. One of the roles of the Parent Involvement and Advisory Committee is to help us in this process. After a discussion of our school’s particular concerns and expectations, we took the template provided by PIAC and modified it to our specific needs.
