COMMUNITY NEWS:
The Stoney Creek Community Council (PAC) is looking for a parent (or parents) to be our school’s DPAC (District Parent Advisory Committee) Representative.
What is DPAC?
DPAC is a district-wide committee made up of parent representatives from each Burnaby school. Members meet to learn about district initiatives and programs, share information with their school community, and provide input to the Burnaby School Board on educational matters.
Every school is required to have a DPAC representative, and this role is a great way to stay informed and have a voice at the district level.
