2022 Municipal and School Board Elections

#MakingaDifference22

MONDAY, MAY 9, 2022

On October 24, Ontarians have the opportunity to vote in the 2022 Municipal and School Board elections.

School board trustees are locally elected representatives of the public and community advocates for publicly funded education. Trustees play a key leadership role in setting the strategic direction for their local school board and help shape the education experience, the school environment and the future of our children, communities, and province. Trustees make a difference.

Grand Erie District School Board represents more than 25,000 students in 58 elementary schools and 14 secondary schools within the City of Brantford and the counties of Brant, Haldimand, and Norfolk as well as students from Six Nations of the Grand River and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. With a dedicated staff of more than 2,500, Grand Erie is committed to learning, leading and inspiring.
