School Council

Meetings of Sherwood’s School Council normally take place on the third Tuesday of the month from September to May. The School Council Meetings are held in the school Learning Commons/Library or via Microsoft Teams and they begin at 6:00 pm unless otherwise noted. Parents, guardians, and caregivers of Sherwood students, along with community members and students are welcome.

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
