Highlights of our school year include:

• Videos were made to promote safety around the school and provide a behind the scenes look at what the school looks like now with restrictions
• Many fundraising efforts were put on hold as last year’s funds were unspent
• Investigated upgrading sign – school has asked for support for ordering new letters. Still looking to find a company that makes letters in the size we require.
• Offered support for book fair, but no volunteers were needed as it was done online and delivered to homes
• Staff appreciation – provided separate lunches for all staff members
• Supported École Varennes with $500 for holiday hampers which went out to families in need in their community
• Refunded hot lunch credits to over 150 families
• Supported kindergarten evening with a speaker introducing PAC
• Supported an information session to learn more about Bill 64 from LRSD Trustees
• Lacoste fundraiser sold over $12000 in gift cards which is over $1500 profit. Gift cards were delivered to homes by PAC members

Plan to support

• Planting clover on the hill behind the school. Working with school on details
