  1. Establishing Bylaws 7.1 Don’t reinvent the wheel; check Regulation 612

  2. School councils are not required to develop lengthy constitutions, since Ontario Regulation 612/00 sets out the mandate and roles and responsibilities for school councils. In effect, the regulation serves as the constitution for the school council. (If a school council already has a constitution in place, the council may wish to continue to use it, provided that it does not conflict with the provisions of the regulation.)

  3. School councils must develop certain bylaws to provide them with direction for the operation of council business and to help the council work effectively. The development of operating bylaws should begin as soon as possible after a council meets for the first time. At a minimum, the regulation requires councils to develop bylaws to address the following areas: • election procedures • filling vacancies • conflict of interest • conflict resolution procedures

  4. Samples • See 7.3 – 7.16 for sample bylaws • Suggestion: establish a committee to draft bylaws to bring back to CSC.
