At Dunnville Secondary School, the Student Council and Indigenous Students Council play vital roles in shaping the school community by representing students, organizing activities, and fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for all. Both councils provide opportunities for students to get involved, develop leadership skills, and contribute to the betterment of the school.
The Student Council is responsible for organizing various events and activities throughout the school year, including spirit days, dances, charity fundraisers, and school-wide celebrations. They act as a bridge between the student body and the administration, ensuring that student voices are heard and that students have a say in the decisions affecting their school experience. The Student Council works hard to create a fun, engaging, and inclusive atmosphere that brings students together and promotes school spirit.
The Indigenous Students Council, on the other hand, is focused on raising awareness about Indigenous cultures, traditions, and issues. This council works to create a welcoming and respectful space for Indigenous students while educating the wider school community about Indigenous perspectives. The Indigenous Students Council organizes cultural events, such as traditional ceremonies, awareness days, and educational workshops. They also advocate for the needs and well-being of Indigenous students, ensuring their voices are represented within the school.
Both councils are open to all students, and getting involved is a great way to build leadership experience, make new friends, and make a positive impact on the school community. Whether through event planning, advocacy, or cultural awareness, these councils offer a variety of ways for students to contribute and get engaged at DSS.
