Parent Advisory Council (PAC)

Who is the PAC?

  • Each and every parent or guardian of a child enrolled in the school is a member of the Parent Advisory Council.  You all have a voice, a say, and a part, in the work we do together, for and with the school.  Our PAC Executive Council administers the formalities of the PAC and oversees the activities and programs our school community runs.

 What does the PAC do?

  • Together our PAC community plans fun activities for our children, fundraisers for tools and resources to better our children's education, discuss some of the challenges and issues our school faces, and support parent involvement within the school.

 How do I get involved?

  • Join us at our meetings every *first Wednesday* of the month at 6:00pm in the school library and be a part of what we do.  If you are unable to make it to the meetings, contact us to chat about how you can be involved.  We want to include everyone who wants to be involved.  Everyone is welcome!

 Why should I be involved with the PAC?

  • Parent involvement makes a difference - whether it is through giving feedback on education or fundraising to better the school's resources.  It all makes a difference in your child's educational experience.  Participating in the PAC is also a great way to make new friends and get involved in your community.

 Let's keep in touch!

  • We love to keep you informed about activities, events, and fundraisers, please join our parent Facebook Page (Bert Edwards Page for Parents)

 Have questions, ideas or concerns?

  • Bring them to a meeting!  Or, the easiest way to connect with the BEST PAC Executive is through our e-mail address – bestpac2023@gmail.com 

HELP!

  • We cannot put on fun events or fundraise for our school without the help of volunteers.  More hands make less work for everyone.  Any help is needed and greatly appreciated.  If you can help out in any way, PLEASE indicate your interests and availability by e-mailing or messaging us and share any NEW ideas you may have! 

We hope you can all join us in whatever capacity you can.

The Bert Edwards Parent Advisory Council (B.E.S.T PAC) would like to welcome all the staff and students back to BEST! We had a fun and successful fundraising campaign in 2023/2024 and we hope to continue that into the 2024/2025 school year!

PAC meetings are a great way to learn what’s happening at the school, meet other parents, and have your input heard! All fundraising efforts go right back to B.E.S.T and our staff and students! You don’t have to attend all the meetings to be part of the B.E.S.T PAC you are welcome to join us whenever you can. Everyone is welcome and we look forward to meeting you!

Join our parent Facebook at “Bert Edwards Page for Parents (B.E.S.T)” It’s a page for our school community where we can share information, stay in the loop with all PAC events/fundraisers, ask questions or post anything regarding B.E.S.T. It’s also a great place to connect and get to know other parents!
