We remain committed to upholding the values of equity, diversity, and inclusion in our living, learning and work environments.

We know that diversity underpins excellence, and that we all share responsibility for creating an equitable, diverse and inclusive Board-community.

Therefore, in pursuit of the Board's values, we seek members who will work respectfully and constructively with differences and across the organizational hierarchy in actualizing the Board's priorities, goals and principles outlined in the Director's Action Plan.

First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, and all other Indigenous peoples;

At YRDSB, we recognize that many of these identities intersect and therefore, equity, diversity and inclusion can be complex.
