DDSB is dedicated to a safe and respectful environment for students, parents, families, trustees, staff, and community members in attendance at Board and Committee meetings. In that regard, DDSB will shift to virtual public attendance until a review can be completed as to the additional or other measures that can be put in place to best ensure a safe and respectful meeting space. As noted, all public meetings will remain open to the public through virtual means. Public meetings are livestreamed on YouTube. 

In-person attendance will resume when the additional necessary and appropriate protocols are in place. DDSB commits to completing this review in a thorough, diligent, and timely fashion.

Every regular Board meeting includes a Public Question Period. To ask a question, please complete a public question form prior to the Board meeting. Questions may be approved at the discretion of the Chair of the Board and related approved questions may be consolidated. There is no Public Question Period during Standing Committee meetings or Special Board meetings.

Questions shall not be entertained if they relate to a matter which is under consideration by the Board and for which another public input and questioning process is available (e.g. school boundaries, accommodation reviews, school naming). Questions to individual trustees will also not be addressed at public question period. 

Please Note: The public question form will open on Wednesday at 9 a.m. and close on Friday at 12 p.m. before the Board meeting.

Questions selected will be displayed in the Board Room during Public Question Period along with the corresponding response. All questions that are selected for consideration and responses will be posted on the DDSB website subsequent to the meeting. All questions submitted will be shared with Trustees for their awareness.
