Mission and Purpose of DL PAC

The Ecole Dorothy Lynas Elementary Parent Advisory Council (PAC) supports the Dorothy Lynas school community of families, teachers, and school administration by encouraging parent-guardian involvement in school activities.  There are PACs at every school in BC, and as a parent-guardian of a child at Dorothy Lynas, you are a member of PAC!  

Our PAC activities include advising the school administration on school community matters, hosting spirit events and activities, providing parent education, and fundraising.  Fundraising activities provide additional monetary support for initiatives including social emotional learning, common space improvements, teacher expense reimbursement, former student scholarships, field trips, emergency response supplies, and to provide financial assistance to families for designated activities.    

There are many ways to become involved in PAC, ranging from volunteering in a role on our committee, to running a fundraiser, to volunteering for an event or fun food days.  There are also regular virtual and in person PAC meetings where we hear updates from our Principal and PAC representatives.  All are welcome at these meetings, which are a great way to get to know what is happening and to get to know the larger school community.  

TO KEEP UP TO DATE OR IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN VOLUNTEERING, GETTING INVOLVED, OR HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE JOIN US ON OUR NEW APP KONSTELLA OR EMAIL US AT [email protected].

Join the PAC on Thursday September 19th for a Welcome Back Picnic in the Park!

The Welcome Back event is a DL tradition however this year it will look a little bit different. We have scaled back the September event to focus our budget on a larger June fundraising year, in school programs and some other new events.

On September 19th pack a picnic, bring your favourite lawn game and join us in the park for a fun, casual gathering. We will have a few volunteer run games with prizes, popcorn and a PAC snack table. There will not be any food trucks or food for purchase this year.

BYOP (Bring Your Own Picnic) and let’s gather together to celebrate the start of another wonderful year at Dorothy Lynas!
