Student Senate
From each high school in the BWDSB a Representative or Student Senator goes to monthly meetings at the school board office in Chesley, Ontario and brings ideas and suggestions from their school. They are a part of the student senate. In November 2011 The Student Trustees created "BlueTAPwater" (Bluewater Teens Against the Privatization of Water). This initiative is to make the BWDSB a waterbottle free school. In May 2012, the student senate held their first conference. SOS (Support Our Students) - Voices and Choices Conference. The conference was held at OSCVI in Owen Sound, Ontario and the focus of the conference was mental Health.
