Council bylaws

The bylaws explain how our School Advisory Council is formed and runs: who may serve, how parent and caregiver members are elected, how meetings and votes work, how funds and records are handled, and how conflicts and amendments are addressed.

The document is the TDSB School Council By-Laws, the board template that council bylaws follow, and covers the same duties described above for each role.
