What is P.A.C.?
Our Vision
Our vision is to make every child’s potential a reality. Together we are a powerful voice for the children. With your help, we can continue to work towards P.A.C.’s goal of quality education and a nurturing environment for every child. We are dedicated to promoting children’s health, well-being, and educational success through strong parent, family, and community involvement.
We serve as a type of forum where parents, teachers, administrators, and other concerned adults discuss ways to promote quality education, strive to expand the arts, encourage community involvement, and work for a healthy environment and safe neighborhoods.
