Parent Council's "Helpful Link"

People for Education has a website with many interesting topics, strategies, advocacy tips and links for School Councils. As stated in their "About Us" area, People for Education is a group of parents who are working to preserve fully publicly-funded education in Ontario. In 1996, they began as part of the parent association at a downtown Toronto school and have grown to become a provincial organization.
