Parent School Support Committee
Parents at the Canadian International School of Hefei are very active in the school community. Every parent is a member of the Parent Association. Throughout the year, Parent Association volunteers organize and carry out various activities, events and fundraisers. Whether parents can help a little or a lot, their efforts and talents are always welcome and appreciated.
Parent School Support Committee
A small part of the Parent Association is the Parent Executive Committee. The purpose of the Parent Committee is to further the Parent Association goals by means of:
- Providing support to the school and staff by organizing, managing, and contributing to ongoing or yearly events and activities.
- To build and promote a sense of community throughout the school.
- To bring into closer relationship the home and the school, so that parents and teachers may cooperate in the education of children.
The Parent Executive Committee will not focus on one event or one class or one student, but rather the improvement and betterment of the whole school. Enriching the environment for ALL students and families within the CISH family is their main goal.
