Next Meeting: Wednesday December 10, 2014, in the library starting at 7 pm.

 All parents and guardians are invited to attend the school council’s monthly meetings.  We had a new attendee from a new family at the November meeting and encourage all long-time, and brand new Empire families to attend these useful meeting.  The meetings are typically 1-2 hours.

 This month’s agenda will be posted at http://emp.wrdsb.ca/school-council-2/school-council-agendas/ a few days prior to the meeting.

 Benefits of attending include building community through planning school council events and projects.  For example, this year, there are plans underway for an amazing outdoor learning area.  Be part of the planning and learn about it first at these meeting.  Thank you to those who participated in the school council sponsored Book Fair in November.
