Our Purpose

The primary purpose of our Council is to advise the principal and liaise with our Vice Principals as part of the implementation and maintenance of the school’s action plan. The principal and Vice-Principals will provide a monthly report/update for each meeting. This team seeks the advice of Council on a variety of matters and takes recommendations of Council into consideration as part of the continuous management of the school.

Council also conducts fundraising activities, special events, and programs to encourage parent volunteerism, all in the interest of improving pupil achievement and maximizing the benefit that our kids will enjoy from their years at Steve MacLean Public School.

Our initiatives include the pizza program, dances, school travel planning and our school partnership plan.

Our Intent

  • Review the school’s action plan for improvement, contribute to the plan by offering advice and actively soliciting feedback from the parent community
