PAC Executive for the 2021-2022 School Year

Chair: Pollaris Raymond

Secretary: Jamie Benton

Treasurer: Rebecca Legros

DPAC Rep: Diana Heidinger

The PAC typically meets on the third Wednesday of every month at 7:00 pm.  Come and find out what is going on in your child's school and to have some input, help to enhance your child's educational experience and to meet and socialize with other parents and staff.

Every parent or guardian of a child registered in a school has a right, under the School Act, to belong to the PAC. The PAC has an elected executive and may have committees, who report to the rest of the parents. Chilliwack Middle School Parent Advisory Council is NOT a forum for the discussion of personnel, students, parents or other individual members of the school community.

The purpose is to advise the principal and staff on parent views on any matter relating to the school-programs, policies or other matters, to direct parents towards resources available for concerns and/or complaints. In other words, the true role of our PAC is that of an advisor to the school and a vehicle for ensuring effective two-way communication between the school and the parent community.

This PAC does not do fundraising. All funds distributed by this PAC currently come from Provincial Gaming Funds and optional parent donations.

The PAC is supports communication between the teachers, parents and the students. It has been shown that students with parents that are involved in their child's education achieve higher grades and have better homework and study skills. The principal, trustee liaison, students and community members may be invited to attend meetings.

The PAC enabled under the School Act, provides a venue for parents to advise the school on any matter. Parents that get involved find out what is happening in their school and are able to provide input to ensure that the school meets the needs, not only of their child, but all children.
