Parents and guardians play a vital role in supporting their child’s education and are encouraged to engage in school life in a variety of ways, including through participation in the Catholic school council at their child’s school. As members of the school council, parents and guardians have the opportunity to collaborate with fellow parents, school staff, and the wider school community. Together, council members work collectively to enhance the student experience and support high‑quality education within the school.

All parents and guardians are welcome to attend Catholic school council meetings, which are held a minimum of four times each school year.

Contact your child’s school for more details: School Directory – Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario
