The JICS Parents' Association is a volunteer, not for profit organization managed by the PA's elected Executive of seven parents, along with the Principal and Vice Principal.

​

Since 1968, the PA has had charitable status that allows it to issue charitable receipts for donations used to advance its purposes.

​

Our purpose is to provide educational resources and programs that advance the educations of the students, and to build, foster and support the JICS parent community.

​

We promote open and transparent parent-school communications; stimulate and organize parent engagement and volunteerism; and facilitate fundraising and events.

At JICS, there is a need for donated funds, above and beyond tuition, which only pays for the general operation of the school. The ongoing efforts of the Parents' Association are 100% funded through your annual membership fees and generous donations.

​

The PA fee is $25.00 per child along with a suggested charitable donation of $150.00 per child. It is simple to contribute and we ask you to do so via Canada Helps. We do recognize that some parents may prefer to pay only their family's membership fee and some may prefer to donate more or less than the suggested amount. No amount is too small or too big!
