School Council/Parent Council Annual Report

Annual Reporting Process

All members of a school council are accountable to the school community for the actions of the school council. The annual reporting process is one of the ways school councils can share their accomplishments with the stakeholders in their communities.

As mandated by Alberta Education in the School Act, school council chairs must prepare and provide an annual report to the Edmonton Public School Board by September 30 of each year. It is recommended that the report be completed by the end of June so that current school council members are still in the school community and are available to contribute to the report. The report must:

• summarize the activities of the school council in the school year; and
• include a financial statement relating to money handled by the school council in the school year.

The District has prepared the following template to assist school council chairs in this process. Remember to keep a copy of the report submitted for the school council's file as well as for the school's file.
