Everything your PAC needs
One school site. One parent login. Tools built for Parent Advisory Councils.
Hot lunch
Purpose-built lunch ordering on your school site, included in your subscription.
- Order for every child on one screen. Multi-date cart and one checkout.
- Per-day cutoffs, allergy notes at order time, and family profiles linked to classrooms
- Vendor work orders, class distribution lists, and label exports for coordinators
- PAC extras for discreet meal coverage without charity labels on class lists
- Secure payment processing on your school site. Lunch is core to the hub, not an add-on.
Calendar & events
Publish your PAC community calendar and schedule activities on your school site.
- Create and publish in-person, virtual, and hybrid PAC activities
- Optional calendar visibility and home dashboard widgets for parents
- Attach documents from your PAC library to events
- Built for carnivals, bake sales, bingo, and PAC meetings, not school field trips
Volunteer sign-up
Run slot-based volunteer signup on your school site, with no separate scheduling account for parents.
- Volunteer slots with date, time, capacity, and sections
- Waitlists, coverage views, and rosters for PAC admins
- Parent volunteering list on your school subdomain
- First-party QR codes and short links into signup flows, with scan counts you control
Communications
Reach parents on your subdomain without borrowing school admin for email and newsletters.
- First-party Inbox on yourschool.pachub.ca with optional email of the same message
- Draft, publish, and target messages by role. Newsletters are messages plus email.
- Evergreen site pages for About, policies, and contact info alongside time-bound updates
- Forms and permissions for agreements without sending parents to another form builder
- Surveys and community input. Optional SMS reminders when your council wants them.
PAC meetings
First-party video and hybrid options designed for PAC general and executive sessions.
- Video rooms for council meetings on your school site, not public Zoom links
- Hybrid-friendly with in-person location when your council needs it
- Elections and ballots designed for PAC governance workflows
- Parents join from the same login they use for lunch and volunteering
PAC documents
Governance packets and archives that outlive officer turnover.
- Draft structured agendas into branded PDF packets and attach finals to meeting events
- Minutes and governance archives organized by school year
- Parents receive meeting documents through your school site
- Finalized packets stay with the event, not scattered across inboxes
School year, families & members
Set up the year, link children to classrooms, and manage roles the way councils actually operate.
- Enable and archive school years. Copy classrooms forward when a new year starts.
- Children and family profiles with classroom picks and allergy or dietary notes
- Searchable membership, invites, role edits, and Hot Lunch Coordinator assignment
- Ownership handoff when executives change, with year disable for parents
- Home dashboard for parents: unread messages, shifts, open lunch windows, and what needs attention
Fundraising & donations
Track campaigns and donations on your PAC site, not a separate portal.
- Fundraising campaigns with goals and progress tracking
- Donation records and tax receipts where your charity status allows
- Separate checkout from hot lunch with secure payment processing on your school site
- Campaign progress your treasurers can update and share with the board
Budget & treasurer tools
Budget vs actual reporting and fund separation for treasurers and auditors.
- Budget vs actual views for monthly and year-to-date reporting
- Separate ledgers for general and gaming funds when your council needs them
- AGM and auditor-friendly exports integrated with your PAC hub
- Licensed gaming checklists and ledgers when BC licence rules apply
Trust & platform
Modern security and school-scoped data, with a subscription that funds the platform without selling your community's information.
- Each school on its own subdomain with role-based access for parents and execs
- Modern authentication and school-scoped accounts. Audit log for sensitive admin actions.
- We don't sell your community's data to third parties. Your council's subscription funds the platform.
- English, French, and Chinese for your school community
