Grad Parent Committee

As you know, the Grad Dinner Dance requires a great deal of planning, coordination, and creativity—and we rely on the support of our parents and guardians to help make this celebration truly memorable for our graduates.

If you are interested in helping with decorating, organizing, or supporting any aspect of this year’s Dinner Dance, please email Ms. Blair at sblair@vsb.bc.ca. 

We will be holding an online Parent Grad Committee Meeting on Tuesday, April 7th at 7:00 pm. 

We hope that several parents and guardians will join us as part of this committee to help bring this special event to life. 

A link will be sent out prior to this meeting.
