School Council
School Council
The Norwell School Council meets with the principal, staff, and other parents to share information about Norwell Programs, events and activities, and keep engaged in our own children’s education. It is also a way of being connected with the school and to help ensure the school is connected with our community in general. It’s a great way to meet new people and fellow parents from your community. The council usually meets once a month with the occasional guest speaker or presentation. Topics for example may include Post-Secondary options, the School Support Team, and information on our Speciality Programs.
