DPCDSB Trustees
School Board Trustees
The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board (DPCDSB), and all publicly funded school boards in Ontario, are governed by a Board of Trustees. Trustees serve as system leaders in education for their communities and province. Trustees are elected by their Catholic ratepayers every four (4) years during the municipal elections. The current eleven (11) trustees for the DPCDSB have been elected to serve from 2022 - 2026. Two (2) student trustees are elected by their peers annually, and also sit with the board in a non-voting capacity.
The Dufferin-Peel Board of Trustees, through board policies, has an established process for addressing concerns raised by ratepayers. Trustees facilitate the concerns of parents/guardians and residents by directing them to relevant Board staff to address any issues. The Education Act requires school board trustees to entrust the day-to-day management of the board to its staff, through the Director of Education. Trustees work collaboratively with their communities to shape a vision for the board that is reflective of the input of parents, students and community members.
School board trustees, as individuals, do not have the authority to make decisions or take action on behalf of the board. They are members of the board. The Board of Trustees as a whole, exercises authority and makes decisions and does so in the interests of all students of the board. Individual trustees have no independent decision-making authority over the board, schools or its employees.
