Are you passionate about advocating for student voice on board topics? The Student Senate Association are Students external to the Senate who assist the Senate in its operations and ongoing activities. The HDSB Student Senate is seeking students outside of the Student Senate to join our subcommittees. This year, we will take 4 students PER region (Burlington, Halton Hills, Milton and Oakville) from grades 7-12 to join one of our 6 subcommittees:
Human Rights, Equity and Inclusion
Mental Health and Wellbeing
Environmental and Global Citizenship
Indigenous Perspectives & Awareness
Learning Engagement and Achievement
Kindness, Connection and Community
Students can apply to as many subcommittees as they like, but they will only be selected for a maximum of ONE subcommittee. Associates will NOT attend monthly Student Senate meetings but may attend Subcommittee, HYLS or other relevant meetings. Associates assist the Senate throughout the following initiatives:
Student Trustee Elections
Halton Learning Foundation
Fundraisers
Halton Youth Leadership Symposium Workshops (HYLS)
Student Senate Subcommittee Workshops
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us:
