What is the PAC?

The Monterey Parent Advisory Council (PAC) consists of any and all parents with a child enrolled at Monterey Middle School. There is no limit to the role this group can play in the context of this learning community. 

Our goal is to have an adequately resourced, equipped and engaged school community so as to enhance the educational, physical and emotional development of our children. We listen, discuss, advise, inform, support, serve, contribute, and engage in many aspects of school life.

How is the PAC managed?

The PAC is managed by the PAC Executive team made up of volunteer Monterey parents. The PAC Executive team is organized as follows:
