 About
The parent participation program is an important dimension of the
operation at our school. The purpose of the program is to promote
a spirit of community and pride amongst our families, and provide
tangible economic benefits to our school.
Families that are interested in applying for the Participation Program
must indicate this on the registration form. Specialized skills
that are identified will help the Participation Coordinator to fill
positions as they become available. Parents are required to
attend a mandatory meeting in the spring (date to be announced each
year). The purpose of this meeting is to outline the Participation
Program and the requirements of the program. Upon acceptance
a participating family is required to commit a minimum of
50 hours of parent participation each year. The
participation year runs a full 12 months from July 1 to June 30. Using
the Bingo model as a baseline most workers are required to work at
least 4 hours 13 times a year, totalling 52 hours per year.
The Education Committee requires from all Participating parents a
set of twelve undated cheques. Ten cheques
will be in the amount of $25.00 each and will be cashed
when a participation shift is missed at the rate of $25.00 per hour
for each hour missed. Two cheques will be in the amount of
$250.00 and will be applied towards any outstanding participation
hours at the end of the school year based on the rate of $25.00 per
hour for each hour not completed of your 50 hour requirement.
The Education Committee would like to
reinforce that it is against policy to hire outside help to fulfill
your participation requirements and therefore unacceptable. Parents
wishing to change their participation category may apply to do so
by completing a category transfer request form available at the school
office. Please note that most transfers
take place in the spring. Please confirm your intent in regards
to our Parent Participation Program by completing the form below. Please circle
only one option.
