In consideration of COVID-19 implications and the increasing impact for families, ASCA has cancelled the 2020 School Councils Conference scheduled for April 24th and 25th.
At this time, the ASCA Annual General Meeting (AGM) scheduled for April 26, 2020, may proceed with a modified format to meet the minimum requirements as outlined in Association Bylaws and the Societies Act.
Full refunds will be issued to all those who have registered and paid to participate.
Parents registered to attend the AGM as Voting Delegates (at no charge) will not be “unregistered”, unless they specifically request ASCA to do so via email to kathym@albertaschoolcouncils.ca.
Attendees are expected to cancel hotel room reservations with the Delta Marriott directly.
Additional details regarding the AGM will be available in the coming weeks.
One of the most important events for parents on school council is the ASCA Conference in conjunction with the Annual General Meeting (AGM).
The 2020 School Councils Conference & Annual General Meeting (AGM) is April 24 - 26 at the Delta by Marriott Edmonton South.
Held each spring at the end of April (usually the third weekend), some 350 delegates from across the province come together to share issues, participate in learning sessions and develop policy for the association. In addition, elections to the Board of Directors takes place at the AGM.
The three day event starts on Friday with registration, Resource Gallery exhibits, pre-sessions, and a welcome social. A (very) full Saturday agenda starts with breakfast, plenary and breakout sessions, address from the Education Ministry, lunch, preparation for the AGM and elections, and an evening awards banquet.
A resource gallery is presented, with over 30 exhibitors displaying products, services and information of value for parents in public education.
