Apply now to be a Student Trustee in 2021-22

We are now accepting applications from students who wish to serve as Student Trustees in the 2021-22 school year.

This is a leadership opportunity for full-time students who will be in Grade 11 or 12 as of September, 2021. After applying, candidates will be asked to record responses to some questions via video. Then, all HWDSB students in grades 7 to 12 will be invited to join the election process that will select two Student Trustees to bring student voice to the Board of Trustees.

In addition, the Shakowennakara:tats (Indigenous Student Trustee) will be selected through CC:ROSE, a student-led community for Indigenous learners who want connect with each other through unique cultural opportunities and by sharing their voice as Indigenous youth across HWDSB. You can learn more about CC:ROSE online.

A Student Trustee is a member of the Board of Trustees and as such is part of the deliberations and decision-making of all matters brought before the Board. Some critical responsibilities of the Student Trustee are to represent the interests of students during deliberations of the Board of Trustees and to communicate Board decisions to system students.

Applications are due by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 31, 2021.
