School council is a group of elected parents/guardians, community members, staff, and sometimes students who bring community voice and parent/guardian perspective on important school topics.
Why join?
Being on school council is a way to have a direct and positive impact on your child's educational experience. Research shows that when parents/guardians are involved in their child's education, the level of student achievement increases.
How to get involved
Anyone can attend school council meetings. Elections happen every fall for those who want to take an active role. Talk to the principal or a current member to learn more. Joining meetings first is a great way to see how the council works.
