Role of a School Council
School councils have a legislated role at their schools and are there to ensure the best possible education for students. Our school councils are comprised of democratically elected representatives of our parent community.
Together, they:
- focus on student learning and the best interest of all students,
- provide a forum through which parents and other members of school communities can contribute to improving student achievement and school performance,
- make recommendations to the school principal and the Board on any matter they see impacting accountability and academic excellence and serve as a communication and information channel between the school and community

Welcome to the Ancaster Senior School Council
As a school council member, you can help your council discover new and exciting ways to contribute to the education of students in your school.Meetings are the third Wednesday of each month, in the Learning Commons at 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm.
Your participation can make a difference.
All are welcome!
