Parent Action Council (PAC)

Welcome to the Compass Parent Action Council (PAC). We are delighted that you are interested in being involved as a parent member of the Compass community. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with our Mission and all that PAC aims to offer.

Mission

The Compass Community Collaborative School Parent Action Council (PAC) is a parent volunteer organization whose objective is to enrich school culture and the student experience.

What We Do

Are you a parent or guardian eager to help build Compass community and culture? PAC can always use Parent Coordinators to help coordinate educational and social activities and events (student socials, staff appreciation gestures, parent education, after-hours socials, community service outings, etc). We also do a bit of fundraising to help fund the activities mentioned above.

Executing Our Mission

In a way true to our school’s approach to learning, the PAC takes a collaborative approach to executing its mission. ALL Compass parents/guardians are welcome to be a part of the PAC and attend its meetings. Meetings are a forum for planning and presenting updates on PAC events/projects/activities. If an idea is deemed a “go” by the parents in attendance, the green light is given and a Parent Coordinator is assigned to execute all facets of the task (pulling in other parent volunteers as needed).

A Note to Parent Coordinators

Please email items you want included in the next PAC Meeting Agenda by the Thursday PRIOR to the next PAC meeting. If you are unable to attend and have an update to share, email the Communications Coordinator by the Thursday prior. If at any time a Parent Coordinator needs to get a message out, he/she contacts the Communications Coordinator—preferably providing 48 hours advance notice.

Passive Fundraising

Funds raised by PAC are used to supplement school and PAC activities. Passive fundraisers are the easiest way to “give” and require little effort. Our current passive fundraiser is the King Soopers Community Rewards Program. We earn a percentage back each quarter (up to 5% of grocery purchases).
