WHAT
At Unionville High School, Student Council is an energetic group of students that take initiative to become active leaders within the school. Our council collaborates to organize school events with the opinions, ideas and interests of the student body. Our main objective is to gather and represent the voice of the student body to create a more enjoyable high school experience for all.
MISSION STATEMENT
This year York Region District School Board continues to focus on engaging students’ learning with technology and to support positive mental health. Unionville Students’ Activities Council (USAC) believes that by creating a spirited community integrated with the proper use of technology, it will promote positive mental health and technological interaction. USAC believes that the student life plays an extremely crucial role in their education, and aims to create an environment where students feel comfortable and safe, allowing them to expand to new horizons of their education.
Unionville Students’ Activities Council (USAC) for the 2019-2020 school year plans to create a spirited and engaged school community through the use of technology, running school wide events, and workshops. By the end of the year, USAC hopes that the student body has become more enthusiastic, inclusive and unified.
