Student Senate Application

Thank you for your interest in applying for the 2024-2025 Student Senate. The time commitment will include monthly in-person General Senate meetings that will be hosted at the various secondary schools, that will be mandatory to attend, and additional meetings  with committees and home senatorial delegations.  

The Student Senate is a committee designed to establish a student vision for the Halton Catholic District School Board. Its members, Student Senators, provide a link between the Student Trustees and the remainder of the students in the board.

The primary role of the Student Senate is to bring the diverse student voices in our Catholic schools to the school board. Senators act as an advisory body to the Student Trustees in order to provide a wider perspective on issues that students face. Student Senators also have the opportunity to self determine their roles. They may choose to develop initiatives that will promote and develop leadership throughout Halton, get involved with board advocacy, and so much more to help push the student senate’s mission and vision to all members of the Halton Catholic District School Board.
