2013-14 PRO Grant application timeline announced!

The Ministry of Education has just announced that applications for the 2013-2014 Parents Reaching Out (PRO) Grants program are now open.

You can find the information here: http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/parents/reaching.HTML

The deadline to apply is May 21, 2013.

Project guidelines for school grants are available here: http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/parents/schools.html

Upcoming event - save the date
The Peel board's Parent Involvement Committee will host Spark!, an event for school council members to share parent involvement ideas, on May 7, 2013. The event will feature a presentation on PRO grants from the Ministry of Education. Expect to receive registration information next week. Councils will be invited to send two members. Schools are also invited to submit parent involvement success stories.

You may have heard that I'm leaving the Peel board. My last day is this Friday. If you have questions about PRO Grants, parent involvement or school council, please contact Carla.pereira@peelsb.com. It's been a pleasure working with you (and for you) for the past eight years.

Take care,
Alison
