Thanks to Chair Jeff, the rest of Council and Principal Sas-Evans for the opportunity to participate. Thanks to the Council Executive for continuing to serve another year – we need you!
Council and staff provided great feedback on engaging with parents:
– use multi-media, SchoolZone is great, but also use paper, social media
– think about translation in other languages
– keep to a few questions
– focus on the impacts in school, this is what parents are most concerned with
– discuss implementation, not just policy. Also report on implementation, for example, do schools monitor adherence to Daily Physical Activity and junk food policies?
