<p>Education is a partnership involving parents, students, teachers, principals, community and school boards.</p>

<p>School councils provide advice on school matters and help to strengthen the important relationship between schools, parents/guardians and their communities.</p>

<p>All members of the school community are welcome to attend council meetings. Parents/guardians and community members are key to a successful school council. Getting involved gives you the opportunity to be part of a team working to ensure a high quality of education. School councils are supported in their work through various resources available online or through the school administrator.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This is just one-way families can get involved to support students and schools. Learn about&nbsp;<a href="http://www.yrdsb.ca/Parents/Pages/Get-Involved.aspx">other things you can do to engage with your child’s learning</a>&nbsp;at home and at school.</p>
