About Us

The Shingwàkons School Council is a dedicated and active group of parent/guardian volunteers and interested community members who collaborate with school staff and administration to support and improve the school community. The Council consists of voting members, led by an elected executive team comprised of two co-Chairs, a Treasurer and a Secretary.

The role of School Council is to:
  • offer parents and guardians a forum where they can learn about the latest school activities, curriculum initiatives and news from the OCDSB, as well as a venue to voice their concerns, ask questions and offer feedback directly to school administrators;
  • raise funds for programs and other activities that benefit the students of the school;
  • coordinate events to engage students, families, friends and community members to enhance school spirit and awareness; and
  • organize and manage resources to help parents and guardians.

Parents and guardians are an integral part of a child's education. We encourage all families to have a parent or guardian attend monthly School Council meetings; you do not need to be an elected member to attend. This will provide you with an opportunity to interact with the school's administration (Principal/Vice Principal), helping to ensure the needs and voices of families are heard. We meet monthly on Thursdays from 6:30-8pm.
