ABOUT US
The Lord Byng Secondary School Parent Advisory Council includes parents and guardians of all Lord Byng students. Every Lord Byng parent is automatically a member of the Lord Byng PAC.
The Lord Byng PAC strives to complement and support the efforts of the teachers and administrative staff to provide an outstanding learning environment for all students. Some of the ways in which the PAC meets this goal include advising the principal and staff about parents’ views, communicating to all parents about school activities, providing a forum for the exchange of ideas and concerns, and raising funds to support classroom and extracurricular programs. As part of the commitment to creating and maintaining an open dialogue between parents and the school, the principal attends all PAC meetings. The PAC works to involve all parents and guardians in building a vibrant and welcoming school community for both parents and students.
We invite all parents to attend PAC meetings and to get involved – we guarantee that you will make meaningful connections within the parent community and participate in decision-making that will benefit your child.

We look forward to hearing from you!

PAC Safety Subcommittee
Lord Byng Safety subcommittee works with the PACs at École Jules Quesnel and Queen Elizabeth Elementary School as the 16th Avenue School Safety Coalition. In spring 2024, the Coalition successfully lobbied the City of Vancouver and Vancouver School Board to make permanent improvements to W. 16th Ave, from Imperial/Discovery to Wallace Street.
Recent improvements to the area include new 'school zone 40km/hr' signs and road markings, and concrete barriers at Wallace and W. 16th to guide pedestrian and vehicle traffic.
Support the safety committee by following the social media accounts or signing up for email updates. Please send relevant traffic footage or concerns to Karrie Bogart Chair, Lord Byng Safety Committee karriebogart[at]gmail.com.
