Description: | School councils are elected bodies made up of parents or community members. Almost every school in the Yukon has a school council. They review and approve school plans, participate in the hiring of the school's principal and advise on a large variety of issues affecting the school. To contact a school council, speak with your local school or the Department of Education. |
