Parent Engaging Parents Committee (PEP) seeks to support, encourage and enhance parent engagement at the school level in order to improve student achievement and well-being. PEP serves an integral role within the School Council by providing parents with the opportunity to voice their concerns, ideas and challenges while promoting further parent involvement through events.
The mission of the fundraising committee is to organize and execute events / activities throughout the school year in order to raise funds for enriching the learning experience of all Forest Trail Public School students.
The safety and well-being of our students is very important for School Council. Throughout the year, we work in conjunction with the school to bring important programs and information to both parents and students.
