• What is School Council?
  • School councils are local bodies that support improved student achievement and well-being through the involvement of parents and enhance the accountability of the education system to parents. They advise principals and, where appropriate, school boards on issues affecting education programs and the operation of individual schools. School councils focus on increasing parent involvement within the school community as a key factor in improving student achievement and well-being. To achieve this goal, school councils work with the school principal to create a welcoming environment, increase opportunities for parents to provide input on and respond to school and board initiatives, identify barriers to parents’ engagement in their children’s education, and implement strategies to overcome the barriers. – TVDSB School Councils Overview Document
