6 Parents' Handbook 2024– 2025
PARENTS' ASSOCIATION
All TFS parents are members of the TFS Parents'
Association (PA). Our mission is to engage and
strengthen the community for the benefit of all the
students. We accomplish this through sponsoring
school events and through fundraising to fulfill
the requests of the TFS administration for student
resources that offer the greatest immediate impact.
Since 2016, the PA has donated over $1.5 million to
the TFS Foundation and the Principals' Wish Lists.
The Parents' Association Committee (PAC) is the
elected, decision-making body of the PA. It comprises
voting members from the following groups:
- Executive Committee,
- Branch Teams (representatives from La P'tite École,
Junior School, Senior School and West Campus), and
- Standing Committee Coordinators.
Fundraising activities, led by the Standing Committees,
are events which bring our community together,
and enable the PA to make significant financial
contributions to the school. Kermesse (Fun Fair),
Marché d'hiver (a winter market), pizza lunches, Spirit
of Spring and Birthday Book Club are just some of our
cherished annual traditions.
Our Branch Team Representatives meet monthly with
their respective administration to support branch
events and activities. Class Representatives, from
Jardin d'éveil to Grade 7, assist the classroom teacher
with a variety of requests, ranging from coordinating
celebrations to recruiting class parents for special
events.
As a PA member, there are many ways to get involved:
- Participate in a monthly PAC meeting
- Attend a PA-sponsored event such as a Principal's
Breakfast or Principal's Apéritif
- Volunteer for a wide variety of events and activities
Are you thinking of volunteering? We'd love to hear
from you! Tell us about your availability and interests
by emailing volunteers@tfs.ca.
Volunteers are the heart of the PA - with your support,
anything is possible!
