Westmount School Council

Check back on this web page on a regular basis to find out "what's on" for Westmount Parents. In addition to news about School Council events, you will find a handful of links at the bottom of the page to help you support your child's educational journey. Many more links are found on each page of this website, along the right-hand side of the page.

The mission of a School Council (known as "Parent Council" in some schools) is to foster the well-being and effectiveness of the School Community and thereby enhance student learning.

Westmount School Council will facilitate communication in our School Community so that we may work together to create an effective learning environment and enable our students to achieve their potential. We will strive to uphold the guiding principles when making decisions or providing advice with respect to our School.
