Inter-A News

The Inter-A Students Society is the non profit Society comprised of the students, teachers and families of Inter-A whose purpose is to support the Inter-A program.

Each year a parent Board of Directors is elected to work with our students and teaching team on decision making for the program and collaborate on fundraising and program events.

Traditionally, the Society has provided financial support to Inter-A events such as the Annual Fall Retreat, Holiday Craft Day, Seasonal Activity Days, Grad Banquet, and Year-End Barbeque as well as providing assistance to the Inter-A play, and Destination Imagination and Ultimate teams. The Society has also purchased supplies for the program including a refrigerator, meals for special events, event supplies, camera and video equipment, and a canopy to be used for outdoor activities.

Inter-A parents can often be found helping out with and enjoying many of the program’s great activities with the students and teaching team. By participating as a Director of the Inter-A Students Society you will get first-hand and up-to-date information on what is happening at school, not just what your child remembers to bring home. You will get to know the program and its teaching team, other parents, and students personally while we work together on our common goal of sustaining Inter-A as an excellent educational program for all our children.
