We're the Parent Advisory Council for Shortreed Community Elementary. Together we support students, staff, and our school community through fundraising, events, and parent engagement.
The new bell schedule begins Wednesday, September 9th.
Our PAC is run entirely by volunteer parents and caregivers. All Shortreed parents are members and are welcome at every monthly meeting.
From hot lunch to movie nights, the PAC organizes programs that make Shortreed a great place to learn and grow.
