Meeting Dates & Members of the CPIC

Catholic Parent Involvement Committee (CPIC)

The province of Ontario is committed to enhancing the involvement of parents in their children's education. To support this commitment, our Board has established a parent committee, called the Catholic Parent Involvement Committee, with a direct link to the Director of Education and trustees.

This committee is chaired by a parent and the membership is made up of a majority of parents, trustee representation and the Director of Education. The committee meets four times a year with a focus on supporting regional school community council meetings and inter-school communication.

The committee looks at ways to provide orientation, in-service training sessions and other networking opportunities for Catholic School Community Council Chairs and Council Members. 

CPIC Meetings will begin at 7pm and will be held in person at the Board Office, 46 Alliance Boulevard in Barrie as well as virtually for members.

The next meeting of the 2023-2024 CPIC will be held on Monday, February 5, 2024 and include a presentation on How to Talk to Your Kids About Race and Racism . This meeting will be available on line for public viewing. The agenda will be available prior to the meeting under CPIC Agendas and Minutes.

The 2023-2024 CPIC meeting schedule has been set for May 6, 2024 and a September date to be determined.
