Parental Advisory Council (PAC)
PACs strive to represent the diversity within their communities and contribute to the benefit of all students by:
- Providing opportunities to educate and inform parents about the school
- Involving parents in volunteer activities
- Openly discussing parents’ concerns and aspirations for their schools

Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) are the official voices for parents at the school level. If you have a child in a B.C. school, you are automatically a member of the school’s PAC.
PACs are forums within each school community to discuss matters affecting your school and the education of your children.
Parents’ voices are a tremendous value to their school. They offer a wealth of ideas and support in the challenges that face all public schools.
