Forest Grove Elementary PAC

🚨 PARENTS: THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO BE HEARD 🚨

BC is deciding its priorities for Budget 2027-and public education needs strong voices at the table.

📚 Larger class sizes.
🧑‍🏫 Stretched support staff.
🎭 Programs at risk.
💰 Ongoing funding pressures in schools across BC.

The government is accepting public submissions until June 19 at 2:00 PM, and individual parent submissions can have a real impact.

✨ You don’t need to be an expert.
✨ You don’t need to write a report.
✨ You just need to share your experience.

Tell the province what your child, your school, and your community need.

⏰ It takes about 15 minutes.
📢 Every parent voice counts.
❤️ Our kids are worth it.

Submit your feedback before June 19:
consultation-portal.leg.bc.ca

Please share this post and encourage other parents, caregivers, grandparents, and community members to participate.
