Parent Involvement Opportunities
Hello Mustangs! Your 6-12 Parent Action Committee (PAC) is gearing up to start the school year strong and want to hear from YOU! For those who aren't familiar with the PAC, our mission is to promote meaningful parent involvement and support in school activities by encouraging participation, communication and the sharing of ideas/resources with parents, staff, students, and the community.
We would LOVE to have you involved in whatever way you are able but recognize that means we need YOUR INPUT to best accommodate everyone’s busy schedules. If you could take a few minutes to fill out this short PAC Involvement Survey so we know what works best for a majority of those interested, we would greatly appreciate it! Once we’ve looked over your feedback, we will schedule our initial meeting for the day/time that works best for all respondents.
Until then, should you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to us at ms612pac@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you and hope you have an amazing end of summer!
Sincerely ,
Misty Berry, PAC Chair
