The Catholic School Council shall promote the vision, values and sacramental life of the Catholic practices of the Dufferin Peel Catholic District School Board.

The Council shall promote, support and maintain a positive school environment for all students and staff; facilitate the active and meaningful participation of the parents/guardian, and all members of Divine Mercy School Community; and provide staff, parents and students with an accountable system to which they can voice their concerns, comments and suggestions to support student learning and the building of a vibrant, caring, inclusive, faith community.

The School Council’s primary means of fulfilling its mission statement is by making recommendations in accordance with Regulation 612/00 to the Principal of the school and the Board that established the School Council.

As a member of the Divine Mercy community, you are invited to attend any and all of these meetings. ALL ARE WELCOME!

Come and make a difference!
