Fundraising
How funds are used
All money raised by the Perth School Advisory Council is used to enrich the education experience of Perth students and support their families and caregivers. Some examples of items that have been paid for with these funds in the past include Culturally Relevant and Responsive Pedagogy books for classrooms, the schoolyard revitalization, Scientist in Schools programming, dance workshops, field trips and an upgraded sound system for the school gym.
We take our lead from Perth’s School Statement of Needs and apply an equity and anti-oppressive lens when voting on items to fund. This is done to support the Perth School Advisory Council’s vision of building an inclusive community at our school.
