School Council
The council advises the principal and school board on matters relating to the school and shares information and ideas with Alberta Education.
We ensure parent and community perspectives are represented in school decision-making.
All parents and guardians of CJP students are automatically members of the School Council.
School Council meetings are a great opportunity to hear directly from the CJP leadership team, have your say on new initiatives at CJP, and be more richly involved in your child’s education.
