School Council

The Rockcliffe Park Public School Home and School Association (AKA the School Council) are parent and staff volunteers who facilitate parent involvement in the school and communication between administration, staff, and parents.  The RPPS School Council works with the principal, teachers, and staff to enhance and enrich the lives of our children.  We help to fundraise, find parent volunteers for school programs and activities and work with the school to prioritize how Book Fair funds are budgeted and distributed. We also work to keep parents informed and involved in our school community.

We meet on the second Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm in the school library. 
Parents and teachers are invited to join us at our monthly meetings.  We hope to see many of you attend, volunteer and participate.

We end the formal business meeting at 8:30 pm, after which we have an informal discussion period where people can raise any questions or concerns they have that go beyond the meeting agenda.

Our constitution and bylaws are available here, and council meeting minutes are posted here.  Draft agendas for upcoming meetings are posted here.

We are part of the Ottawa-Carleton Assembly of School Councils.

Book Fair 2013

Book Fair is your once-a-year chance to raise money to enrich your child's educational experience and to come have fun building your community. Volunteer opportunities begin in late October and continue through the fair.

Look for the Book Fair packet that will go home in your child's backpack for all the information you need.

Donations of gently used books are accepted all year long at the drop box in front of the school:

Rockcliffe Park Public School
350 Buena Vista Rd.
Ottawa

It takes all of us: parents, children, RPPS teachers and staff, and the greater community to make all this incredible event happen. Please volunteer generously. Thank you!  Visit our website at www.rockcliffebookfair.com for more information.


The Milk Program is ongoing.

To ensure your child is receiving their milk and drinking it, please insist that they bring home their empty carton. This will help the school with the "no garbage" policy, and it will ensure that the cartons are recycled at home. 

If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Levia

For more about the Elementary School Milk Program, see milkinschool.ca.


The Pizza Program is ongoing.

As you may be aware the pizza program is now a school wide fundraiser and all children at RPPS will benefit in some way. The grade 6’s will still have a portion of the proceeds to go toward their year end excursion. Other ideas have been for each class to receive extra funds for a year end field trip, a year end whole school BBQ and fun day and/or, books for the Library or Literacy room. We will keep you updated on how the funds may be distributed.
