Parent/Guardian Involvement

Mulberry School is immensely enriched by the active involvement and diverse skill sets of parents/guardians and the extended community. We welcome your involvement! All parents/guardians are asked to indicate where their time/skills may be directed on the Enrolment Agreement Form. Involvement is required in the following areas:

Board of Directors or Committees

The school is governed by the Board of Directors and supported by its standing committees (Finance, Human Resources, Community Development, Health and Safety, Marketing, Planning, Property Acquisition, Policies and Procedures). This is an opportunity to participate in decision-making on a wide range of school issues.

School Support

Technical and professional services (e.g., renovations and maintenance, publications, photography, database and web site assistance) greatly enhance the running of the school.

Festivals

Mulberry School celebrates seasonal festivals such as the Winter Fair and May Fair. We encourage all parents/guardians to get involved in helping to organize events, baking, singing, playing music, and/or crafting hand-made items.

Fundraising

We have ongoing fundraisers such as grocery cards and fair-trade organic coffee. As well we have occasional fundraisers including samosas, perennial bulbs, candles and books.

Charitable Donations

Since its founding as a registered charity, donations to Mulberry School by parents, former parents, grandparents, teachers, and community members have been instrumental in its growth. We welcome donations, which enable the school to keep tuition affordable, offer tuition adjustment, and improve staff salaries and training. We have an Annual Giving Campaign.
