About Dewson School Council

The purpose of school councils is, through the active participation of parents, to improve pupil achievement and to enhance the accountability of the education system to parents. – Education Act, Ontario Regulation 612/00, s. 2 (1).

The school council advises the principal and the TDSB on a variety of issues and activities relating to student achievement and well-being, curriculum goals and priorities, school budget priorities, school safety, renovation plans, after-school activities, staffing allocation, the School Improvement Plan (SIP) and the School Statement of Needs (SSON).

 

Parent involvement makes a difference.
