Parent Connection

Parent Council:

The Parent Council is a group of parents who volunteer their time to coordinate Parent Connection meetings, fundraisers, field trips, and other activities in support of our school.

At Parent Connection meetings, you can:

Stay current! These meetings act as an informational resource for parents, not only with current changes within the Mead School District, but also with ALE programs.
Speak up! This is the place to communicate ideas, and ask questions.
Get involved! We encourage parent involvement in our school, and want to utilize your many gifts and abilities!

MEET YOUR PARENT COUNCIL:
	Bonnie Gellatly - President Our kids have attended Five Mile Prairie since 2007. That’s over a decade! I tell everyone we truly get the "best of both worlds" being a part of a program where we can have the kids at home most of the week, but also get to know good friends from school, and benefit from brilliant teachers. I am so grateful for our wonderful, supportive staff, and for the beautiful historic schoolhouse building in which we meet. Looking forward to another great year!
	Jenna Tracy - Vice President I have two energetic boys, and have been at Five Mile since 2016. I appreciate the support from the teachers/staff, the structure, variety of classes, and the assistance with curriculum cost. It has been a blessing getting to know other parents who are actively involved in the education of their children. I appreciate the opportunity to serve this wonderful program, and give back a little of what this school has given to our family. I help plan the field trips and love suggestions if you have a great idea or connection!
