Greetings Parents/Guardians,
I hope that this email finds you well. Please find below an important message about the Catholic School Council online election process for this school year and this year’s nomination form (highlighted in yellow below).
What is the Catholic School Council
The St. John XXIII Catholic School Council is a group of hardworking parents: dads, moms, working professionals, just like you! Working alongside the parents are a selected group of teachers, the school principal and school support staff.
Role of the Catholic School Council
Members of the Catholic School Council will be expected to attend and participate in monthly meetings (approximately 4-8 meetings per year). Members will work collectively with other Council members, school administration and the Board to improve student achievement, promote parental involvement, help set school priorities and build community. Parent representatives are voting members and elected for a one-year term by parents and school administration.

Is There a Spot for Me on the CSC Team?
Yes. Last year, our CSC team consisted of 10 dedicated Parent Representatives, 2 devoted teachers, and myself. In the event of more than 21 nominees this school year, an election process may take place. Elections will take place in-person on Tuesday, September 27th.
