PAC News

The PAC is the officially recognized collective voice of parents. They provide parents the opportunity to gather to discuss matters affecting the school and the education of its children. In addition, special events and fundraisers to help support the school are planned through the PAC. These events, which bring together the school community are only possible with parent involvement.

The PAC meets once a month with our school Principal, to discuss events and news at Maple Lane. During the meetings all parents who attend vote on items to purchase for the school and activities to sponsor with the PAC funds raised through our many fundraising efforts. All parents (PAC executives or not) are invited to join and vote on initiatives during the meeting.
