Student Senate
The Student Senate is a link between the students and school board. The Senate is composed of one dedicated student representative from each of the board’s secondary schools selected by the student government of each of the secondary schools. Alternatives may be chosen at the discretion of the schools. Each senator attends a meeting once a month to share events taking place within their school, to present ideas or concerns, and to address and provide student voice on important issues. This is one of the places where student voices are heard!
Two student trustees were elected to serve on the Board for the 2022-22 school year:
- Brooke Hartley (left) is a student at Wellington Heights SS, representing rural schools
- Julia Elmslie (right) is a student at John F. Ross CVI, representing urban schools
