In association with Student Voice BC, Claremont Secondary School is pleased to invite students from the Southern Vancouver Island area to participate in the 2016 Regional Student Voice Conference. This day-long community forum will provide high school students with an opportunity to collaborate and address issues related to education in the province.
Student
Voice is seeking students in grades 9-12 from the Southern Vancouver
Island region who are keen to collaborate with youth on issues related
to education in the province. The conference is looking for a diverse
group of students who will have unique perspectives to share on the
current state of education in British Columbia.
It is not an
expectation that participants must be high academic achievers or leaders
in their school. This is a chance for youth who may not otherwise have
the opportunity, to affect meaningful change and have their voices
heard.
Students will be hearing presentations on topics such as the Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement, alternative learning for students who have struggled in the public school system, improvement of education in Financial Literacy and Planning 10. Students will explore these topics further through interactive discussion and reflection.
