Parent Council Zoom Meeting OCT 5th.

Dear Guthrie Parents/Guardians,

For the link to the October 5th Parent Council Zoom meeting, please contact Ms. Hornik.

We are holding elections for Council positions on October 5, 2020  The format of this meeting has not been determined yet but will be either Zoom or Google Meet. 

If you are interested in holding a Guthrie Parent Council position, please send Mel Hornik (mhornik@scdsb.on.ca) an email with your intent by Tuesday, September 22.

 Positions are open to any Guthrie parent.

The positions are:

Chair - The Council Chair’s role largely ensures that proper Council meeting protocol is

undertaken at all meetings. They coordinate members and the meeting agenda with the

Principal or Vice Principal. 

 Co-Chair - The Council Co-Chair is to provide assistance and support to the Chair and fulfill their duties when absent.

 Treasurer – The Council Treasurer provides and maintains accurate accounting of all Council

transactions and provides updates on those reports at council meetings and at year's

end.

 Secretary – The Council Secretary records all items of discussion, follow-up and accurately

notes all motions and voting results at Council meetings. Minutes from these

meetings are recorded and distributed to all members

Although Parent Council won't be doing any fundraising in the near future, it still provides a valuable service to the school by providing feedback and deciding where to allocate school generated funds.  Voting members are an important part of this process, so please contact councilchairgut@scdsb.on.ca if you would like to be a voting member (but not in a titled position) of this year's Council .
