Palermo School Council

We are parents of Palermo PS students who are excited to be involved in our children’s education and in building an engaging and inclusive environment for our school community.

Through the School Council, parents have the opportunity to collaborate with teachers, administration, and community members to create a supportive and effective learning environment. 

Meet Your Parent Council

Our Parent Council is comprised of dedicated parents who volunteer their time and energy to support our school community. Here are our current council members:

  • Chair: Ruby Awada
  • Vice-Chair: Vacant
  • Secretary: Deepa Dey
  • Treasurer: Madre van der Merwe
  • Members: Arif Mobeen Ahmed, Sereen Khass, Bisma Siddiqui, Gillian Brown, Anup Sahoo, Carolina Balbi 

Get Involved!

We welcome and encourage all parents to get involved with the Parent Council. Whether you want to join the council (at the beginning of the year), share feedback or ideas, or volunteer for specific events, your involvement makes a difference.

We look forward to hearing from you!
