CSSAC成员与学校首席教育官员David Stevenson

首席教育官员学生咨询委员会（CSSAC）包括来自全市中学、初中和高中的9年级和12年级代表。这些学生领导者在2016-2017学年每月一次与首席教育官员David Stevenson见面。

在这一年里，CSSAC与David Stevenson讨论了许多问题，包括科技、心理健康、高中过渡、安全与关爱的学校以及学生领导力。David Stevenson和其他系统负责人与这个团体进行咨询，以便学生声音能成为CBE决策过程的一部分。

学生声音在整个年度内一直是该委员会关注的焦点，学生成员指出，被倾听和听取来自其他学校学生的观点如何影响他们的学习。来自Langevin School的Thomas F.解释说：“对我来说最重要的是我们所说的确实产生了影响，我们的话很重要。我学到的是我们所说和所做的实际上可以造福每个人和大众利益。”来自William Aberhart High School的Morgan M.表示同意，同时补充说学生在影响自己的生活和学校方面比他们所想象的更有力量：“来这里帮助我找到了一个发表观点的声音。将来，让更多的学生知道他们有能力发表意见并参与解决问题将是非常好的。”

CSSAC成员非常认真地履行了代表CBE学生的角色。来自Lester B. Pearson High School的Diksha K.解释说：“这个委员会促使我与我学校的其他学生联系，以便我能代表整个学校体的观点，而不仅仅只是我的朋友的观点。”CSSAC成员希望整个CBE学生群体知道，为他们服务是一种荣幸。

David Stevenson, Chief Superintendent of Schools, and members of CSSAC

The Chief Superintendent’s Student Advisory Councils (CSSAC) include Grade 9 and 12 representatives from middle, junior, and high schools across the city. These student leaders met with Chief Superintendent David Stevenson once a month for the 2016-2017 school year.

Throughout the year, CSSAC discussed many issues with Chief Superintendent Stevenson, including technology, mental health, high school transitions, safe and caring schools, and student leadership. Chief Superintendent Stevenson and other system leaders consulted with this group so student voice was a part of the decision-making process in the CBE.

Student voice has been a focus for this council throughout the year, and the student members have noted how being listened to, and listening to other students’ perspectives from other schools impacted their learning. Thomas F. from Langevin School explained, “The biggest thing to me is that what we said actually made a difference, and that what we said mattered. What I’ve learned is that what we say and what we do can actually benefit everyone and the greater good.” Morgan M. from William Aberhart High School agreed, adding that students have more power to influence their lives and schools than they think they might: “Being here helped me find a voice to be able to share my ideas. In the future, it would be great for more students to know that they have the ability to speak up and be a part of solving problems.”

CSSAC members took their role in representing the students of the CBE very seriously. Diksha K. from Lester B. Pearson High School explained, “This council has pushed me to reach out to other students at my school so I can represent my entire school body’s perspectives, not just those of my friends.” CSSAC members would like the entire CBE student body to know that it was an honour to serve them.
