About
Steller Parent Group meets once a month via Zoom. We hear reports from the principal (Reed), a staff representative, and OpGroup to find out more about what is happening at school. This is followed by reports from the Steller Parent Group treasurer and chair. New business will include requests for funding from staff, students, parents or the SPG, as well as any other events and activities the SPG is leading or supporting.
Attending these meetings is an important way to stay informed about what is happing at school, meet teachers and other parents, and have a say in decisions.
