What School Councils are Not:

It is important to be mindful, that as with all partners in education, there are limits to the work that can be done by a Parent Council. Roles that are not to be taken on by a Parent Council include:

  • School governance
  • Employment issues
  • School management
  • Listening to complaints
  • It is not the primary role of school councils to fundraise or lobby

We would like to thank those who attend our meetings and encourage parents/guardians of RES students to attend our meetings.

Membership of Parent Council shall consist of the following:

  • Parents/Guardians of students enrolled in Rimbey Elementary School
