Excel Academy of Southwest Parent Advisory Council

Welcome!

The Parent Advisory Council (PAC) is a community of parents, educators, and caregivers whose mission is to create strong, meaningful relationships for the benefit of our students. We will do this by supporting the campus in its endeavors throughout the school year, and establishing a forum for increased communication and information sharing.

The PAC provides input and guidance on all school matters including student activities and functions, academics, and concerns. Additionally, the PAC advises on parent programming, reviews grant-funded initiatives, and supports extra-curricular activities.

PAC meetings are open to parents and guardians of currently enrolled and alumni students, community members, and staff. Though participation is not mandatory, family members are encouraged to participate.
