COSC Meetings

The Council of School Councils (COSC) is comprised of school council chairs or designates from all CBE schools, members of the Board of Trustees and representatives from CBE administration. The purpose of COSC is to allow for effective interaction between the CBE and its school councils. Through COSC, the CBE can focus on effective, two-way dialogue with our school councils about school and student learning issues.

The 2019-20 Council of School Councils (COSC) meeting dates have been set. Unless otherwise indicated, meetings will be held at the Education Centre (1221 – 8 Street SW) from 7 – 9 PM and free underground parking is available for attendees.

Information on meeting topics will be shared closer to the meeting dates.
