Apr 25, 2025 | 3:29 PM

The Alberta School Councils’ Association is holding the School Councils’ Symposium and Annual General Meeting on April 26 and 27.

The association is in its 96th year of promoting parent engagement in public education.

The meeting will be held via Zoom to encourage more attendees. School councils can register and share the meeting with school council members to take part in sessions, organizers said.

This year, over 300 delegates are expected to attend development sessions and discuss current provincial education issues.

“Parents across our province are still coming together through their school councils to learn together, be empowered, and to elevate their collective voices to education partners, stakeholders, and decision makers through advocacy policies,” said association president Ken Glazebrook.
