In response to the open letter from the North Vancouver Teachers’ Association to parents that was sent home with every student in January 2011, a group of parents (Advocacy Ross Road) has decided to take action in support of the teachers’ concerns (please click here for a copy of the open letter).

The PAC Executive is most supportive of these efforts and has provided space on the PAC website for this project.
