The function of the Preschool Advisory Council is to advise in implementing policies and regulations as stated in the Catholic Schools Administrative Handbook issued by the Diocesan Superintendent of Schools. The PAC assists in the development of school policies and long-range plans, assists in the development of an ongoing assessment of the school’s performance within the context of the total educational mission of the parish, and assists the Director of Preschool and Director of Finance in the development of the school budget in collaboration with the Parish Finance Council and the Pastoral Council. The Preschool Advisory Council is not to enter into the administrative functions of the school.
