An advisory group to the school, the Our Lady of Peace Catholic School Council has as its mandate to provide advice and/or assistance on school issues and community endeavours. Its members reflect the partnership dynamic of home, parish and school. The Council's representation includes parents, the principal, a parish representative, a community representative, as well as teacher and non-teacher representatives. The Council at Our Lady of Peace goes well beyond its mandate and contributes enormously in creating a healthy and rich learning environment for students and teachers alike. Through numerous fundraising activities and special projects, we have benefited in both countless educational and human resources. We extend our deepest respect and appreciation to our members and parent volunteers for their fine efforts. Everyone is welcome to attend the meetings, which will be held the second month on the second Tuesday from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm. All the meetings will be virtual.
