A Response to the Question "What is the Nature of the Protestant School System as this Time?" for the Protestant Committee of the Superior Council of Education

Quebec Federation of Home & School Associations (QFHSA) is pleased to be part of the consultation process with the Protestant milieu on the nature of the Protestant school, undertaken this year by the Protestant Committee. Time did not permit us to circulate widely the question "What is the Nature of the Protestant School System in Quebec at this Time?", but it was discussed by the Board of Directors and a representative number of our local association members were consulted. It is also important to point out that while the membership by local association in QFHSA is within the Protestant school system, as defined by our Letters Patent, individual family membership is open to all. Both the WFHSA Constitution and that of its parent organization, The Canadian Home and School and Parent-Teacher Federation, states what we are non-sectarian. Having said that, we are well aware of the role that Home and School Associations play in the Protestant school system where parent volunteers are in close contact with students, teachers, and administrators who make up the system known as Protestant.
