Parent Council Presentation & Interest Form

Dear Parents,

It was wonderful to see many of you in our El Alsson Parent Council information session yesterday morning.

As mentioned at the meeting, we are very excited to get this up and running and find a huge value in having a strong, active, and engaged parent council to enrich our children’s time here at El Alsson. Increasing the volunteerism culture at the school will have a huge impact on the overall school spirit and will provide great activities for the entire community.

For interested parents who were unable to make it, please see the presentation slides at the link below. We ask parents interested in contributing to the development and work of our Parent Council to please register their interest by completing this sort form. You will then be contacted in the near future with information about next steps and meetings.
