School Council
We invite parents to come for an informal visit with the Principals and Assistant Principals from James Short Memorial School and GW Skene school as an opportunity as partners in public education. In an effort to establish a School Council we would like to start by gathering parents’ thoughts, ideas, and perspectives.
Please join us at James Short Memorial School staff room on Thursday September 25th at 9:00 am. We will have coffee, tea, and snacks available.
