Charitable Giving Committee<\/span><\/h3>\n

This committee helps organize any charitable activities undertaken by teachers and charitable organizations. It is responsible for organizing and implementing any charitable activities such as food and clothing drives and fundraising related to special relief efforts.<\/p>\n

Caring and Safe Schools Committee<\/span><\/h3>\n

The APA supports initiatives designed to improve the physical safety of students. In addition, we promote ways to facilitate respect and empathy, and to cope with peer pressure issues.<\/p>\n

Schoolwide Lice Checks<\/span><\/h3>\n

We\u2019d like to stress that there is no stigma to having lice and anyone can get it. It is however very important that parents let the school know if their child does have lice, and ensure that their child is checked at the office before they go back to school.<\/p>\n

We are fortunate at Allenby to have the services of\u00a0Nit Works<\/a> to conduct lice checks on all students (except those whose parents have indicated otherwise on the consent form). Lice checks happen three times each year during high-risk times (after summer vacation, winter break and March break). Parents are asked to send students to school with \u201ceasy to check\u201d hair (loose or simple pony tail). Volunteers are always appreciated to help escort students to and from the inspection location.<\/p>\n
