Our Parent Advisory Council (PAC) met today to engage in enriching opportunities for parental engagement and learning outside the classroom. It was an insightful session filled with collaborative problem-solving discussions aimed at identifying effective strategies. The collective effort was focused on enhancing the learning experience for our students beyond conventional classroom settings. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to implement these strategies and further strengthen our community's engagement in our children's educational journey! Thank you to all our dedicated parents for your ongoing support and involvement.
