PAC (Parent Advisory Council)The Mount Benson Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) invites all parents to attend our meetings. PAC meetings are held the third Tuesday of each month at 7pm in the Library (except December when no meeting is scheduled). We offer complimentary child minding by Mount Benson students who have completed their babysitting course. Come learn what's happening in the school and how best the PAC can enrich the school experience for our students. School ClosureMount Benson elementary is currently slated to close on June 30, 2008. To help with the transition, the PAC will attempt to provide as much information as possible leading up to the closure, and also following the closure.
