Hello Parent Community,
We hope that everyone is keeping healthy and safe during these unprecedented times. This is a very generic message to touch base as we have all been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic since March 2019 of the 2019-2020 school year.
For those wondering, the PAC has no information and no input with regards to return to school for the 2020-2021 school year, at this time. Please understand and keep in mind that the volunteer parents from last year's PAC have been in the exact same position as all parents, dealing with this new covid situation as parents first. Due to everything being put on hold at the end of last year, the PAC executive that remains from last year won't even be able to properly meet until we know what is happening at the school level.
As much as we are anxious for information, and to have PAC input where we can down the road, we have to understand that the priority of the district and school administration will be focused on the students; and that PAC will be the least of their concern. As soon as we can, the PAC will reconvene and pick up from where it was left off at the end of last year... This will include meeting with school admjnistration, reviewing of minutes, reviewing and settling of financials, setting a new budget, and the need for new and additional PAC members.
We have also not received any confirmation of student enrollment yet and therefore cannot approve new students/families to the PAC page until such time.
If you are a parent who has moved or "graduated" out of the Blakeburn community with your child, we wish you the very best and ask that you please help us out by kindly removing yourself from this group.
We don't know what the upcoming weeks will look like but we will be navigating it as best we can, and will update once we know more.
