⭐You are invited! 

School Council Meet & Greet Evening

Thursday, September 17 • 6:00 PM  in the Assikinack Library

Come join us for a warm and welcoming evening with our School Council! This is a great chance to meet fellow parents/guardians, connect with staff, and learn how you can be part of our vibrant school community.  We always welcome new members to our School Council, new voices, new ideas, new energy! 

💛 What School Council Does at Assikinack

School Council plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between home and school, helping build a collaborative environment where parents and guardians can contribute to our school’s success. Together, we support school initiatives, share ideas, strengthen communication, and help make Assikinack the best it can be.

School Councils advocate for the needs and well being of students, addressing critical issues, enhancing educational outcomes, and improving student achievement. 

📅 Monthly Meetings

We meet at least 4 times a year - maybe a few more! - on the first Monday at 6:00 PM in the school library. (there are usually cookies! 🍪) Generally, we meet in October, November, January, February, April, but this depends on things happening in the school.  

Be part of a fun, engaged community working together to support our students and school!

🌟Election Information
