Parent Information Committee/Parent Information Council
Parent Information Committee (PIC) / Parent Advisory Council (PAC)
The Parent Information Committee (PIC) and Parent Advisory Council (PAC) are organizations that meet monthly at the Central Administration Office.
PIC/PAC consists of parent organization representatives from each of our District schools.
These groups come together to discuss various topics of importance, as well as different educational initiatives and District happenings with PIC Chair Margie Rafferty-Criscione, Board of Education President Frank Capone, Superintendent of Schools, Mary Ellen Walker, and Business Administrator Amy Doherty.
PIC meetings are videotaped and open to the public.
Responsibilities
The representatives' responsibilities are to attend each monthly meeting and report back to their individual school's parent/teacher organization on the substance of each meeting either through summaries in their newsletters, oral reports to their parent/teacher organization meetings or both. The PIC/PAC representative report should be considered one of the most valuable given at their organization's meeting. Decisions made at the district level affect all our children's lives. Some schools may designate more than one representative to PIC/PAC to assure uninterrupted monthly coverage. Minutes are kept of each meeting and are distributed to all representatives to facilitate their reports. Parent/ teacher organizations are encouraged to utilize PIC/PAC through their representatives to make inquiries or inform administration of parental concerns in their individual schools and the district.
