NEWS RELEASE
SIMCOE COUNTY DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD
*************************
The Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB) is committed to identifying and removing barriers within our system to ensure that all students and staff are offered supportive, inclusive and respectful learning and working environments. To support this work, the SCDSB is forming an Equity Advisory Committee (EAC). 

Interested parents/guardians are now invited to apply to become a member of the EAC. Applications are open from May 24 to 31. Applicants must:

  • be a parent/guardian of a current SCDSB student
  • be from an equity-seeking community
  • reside in Simcoe County 
  • not be an employee of the SCDSB

The role of the EAC is to work in partnership with the SCDSB on the review, development, implementation and monitoring of initiatives related to diversity, equity and inclusion. The EAC will support members of the SCDSB community and encourage equitable outcomes, sense of belonging, student achievement and well-being, in alignment with the SCDSB’s Strategic Priorities.

Apply to be a parent/guardian member of the EAC.

This initiative links directly to the SCDSB Strategic Priorities under the pillar of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.
