The York Region District School Board (YRDSB) is currently seeking new members for its Parent, Family, and Community Engagement Advisory Committee (PEAC).
PEAC’s mandate is to support, encourage, and enhance parent engagement at the Board level to improve student achievement and well-being.
YRDSB accepts new PEAC applications annually, and this year’s submission deadline is June 12.
To apply, parents and guardians can submit an online form stating their interest. Paper forms can be obtained through an email request or by calling 905-727-0022, extension #3650.
One Community Member At-Large, a non-parent/guardian who isn’t employed by the YRDSB, can also sit on the Committee.
The Board will host a virtual Membership Application Information Session on May 29 from 7 – 8 p.m., which can be accessed here.
Selected candidates will be notified in October, with the first meeting for newly approved members being held on December 5.
PEAC members are expected to attend a minimum of five meetings per year. More information is available here.
