As the governing body of York Region District School Board, the Board of Trustees establishes a Multi-Year Strategic Plan that identifies our priorities as a school board. Centered on students, these priorities set the direction for the Board and guide our decision-making. Through the Director’s Action Plan, Board strategies and School Improvement Plans, we are bringing these priorities to life in our schools and workplaces:

​

• Foster Well-Being and Mental Health

• Build Collaborative Relationships

• Empower Ethical Leadership

• Champion Equity and Inclusivity
