Gledhill School Council 2015/2016 Elections

Gledhill School Council 2015/16 Elections 

images

As part of our by-law renewal process we implemented a more defined multistage process to elect our chair positions. All school parents and guardians are welcome to fully participate in all meetings. We have a number of defined roles that may or may not be filled any given year and three roles that are necessary and mandated. Chair or co-Chair positions to run meetings, a Secretary to record meetings and a Treasurer to provide finical record keeping and advice.

Many roles were claimed with one person having put there name forward for election. The position for Chair/co-Chair has two interested parties, as such there is a secret ballot election underway. Other open roles may be filled through the year with volunteers being voted in as appropriate.

This ballot is for the position of Chair/co-chair. Votes may be made in the office during normal hours (Wednesday Oct. 7th – Friday Oct. 9th). Please add your name to the voting list. Take a ballot, fill it out and put in the vote box.

Chair / Co-Chair – provides leadership and guidance to the Council, liaises with the Principal and Vice Principal on School Council related matters, and represents the Council at external Toronto District School Board (TDSB) meetings, as required.

Standing for Election:

Co-Chairs:

Andrea Nichols Egan and Jill Kovacs Argue

Chair:

Sam Kazak

From the 2014/15 Council,

to everyone that stood for election,

Thank You.

Gledhill Breakfast Club Needs You!

lunchbagThe Gledhill Breakfast Club is a fantastic program that feeds up to 40-50 kids a healthy breakfast each morning in the lunchroom. It is staffed by an amazing Karen Ingham and she needs your help. In order to maintain the Breakfast Club she needs:

  1. Set-up and serve folks – They arrive at 7:30 to set up and serve the hungry and grateful kids.
  2. Clean-up crew – Perfect after drop off start time – people are needed at 8:40 each day to wipe down the tables and man the dishwasher. Usually done by 9:15.
  3. Grocery driver – Once a week, Karen needs someone with a van to drive her to a few local stores to get the week’s groceries.

Even if you are available only once or twice a week, your help will be very much appreciated! Please contact kingham.gledhill@gmail.com  if you are able to donate a bit of your time each week.

Thank you!
