As a member of our Co-operative preschool, your involvement includes: attending General Meetings, serving on a Committee or on the Board of Directors; and participating in fundraising initiatives. Members are always welcome to attend any Board meeting.
There is a Committee Meeting in September and 2 General Meetings that take place in November and April. The meetings are a forum for parents to know what’s going on in the school and vote on matters of the school.
Committees are an essential part of the Nursery School as they help to keep costs down – which translates into lower tuition. When everyone does their part, the co-operative wins. There are several of committees available with varying time requirements.
Fundraising activities work to raise awareness of Avon Co-operative in the community while raising funds to keep costs down. Tuition alone does not cover the costs of operating the nursery school; fundraising plays a big part in covering expenses.
