2025-2026 Board Meetings

Monthly Board meetings are held on the last working Monday of the month. If one of those Mondays is a holiday or Creed Accommodation day, then this schedule changes. Public session of the meetings begins at 7 p.m.

Members of the public are welcome to watch Board meetings in person or online.

Attending in person

Board meetings are held in the Boardroom at the Education Centre, 51 Ardelt Avenue, Kitchener, Ontario. Seating is strictly limited to 30 persons in our public gallery on a first-come, first-served basis.

If attending in person, you will be asked to wait outside of the Education Centre until the public session of the meeting is ready to begin (usually around 7 p.m.). Education Centre Main Entrance doors will be locked at approximately 7:15 p.m.

Disruptions by the public will not be permitted. Applause, booing or other audible or visual demonstrations of support or opposition may be intimidating for those in attendance. So, the Chair may expel or exclude from any meeting any person(s) who engage in this or any other form of improper conduct. Prohibition on visual demonstrations shall not be construed to prohibit expressions of identity related to characteristics protected under the Ontario Human Rights Code. Courtesy and respect for others must be displayed at all times.

The Chair may expel or exclude from any meeting any person(s) who engage in unauthorized audio, video, or photographic recordings at any Board meetings of the WRDSB. Authorization for audio, video, or photographs will be at the discretion of the Chair.

Please remember that members of the public do not have an opportunity to speak at or during meetings, unless they are scheduled to delegate before the Board. Find out how to register as a delegate. Everyone in attendance is expected to act responsibly with decorum, and adhere to the Ontario Human Rights Code.
