Student Senators
Meet Your 2026–2027 Student Senators
We are excited to introduce the Garth Webb Student Senate team for the 2026–2027 school year! Your Student Senators are here to represent your voice, ensuring student concerns, ideas, and initiatives are heard and addressed across our school community. We are dedicated to fostering a supportive, inclusive environment, and we have established six key goals that we will be working toward together this year.
Expanding Student Leadership!
This year, we are also thrilled to introduce a new leadership initiative: the Junior Student Senator role! Designed as a shadow and mentorship pathway, our Junior Senator will work alongside our Student Senators to learn the ropes of student governance, build leadership skills, and help prepare for future representation next year.
To kick off the year, we will be visiting classrooms to introduce ourselves and share how we can support you. Check out our introductory slideshow for reference, and make sure to follow us on Instagram @gwss_student_senate for updates on all our upcoming projects and events!

Hello, I am Sunethra U. and I am absolutely thrilled to be a Student Senator representing Garth Webb this year. I have always been interested in initiating a sense of equity, community, and safety within educational environments and I strongly believe that this forum is going to allow me to achieve this. However, I can not do this alone. Therefore, the Student Senate is going to need all of your help to influence these changes. I look forward to representing our student voices and I am even more excited to work with all the amazing students and staff at our school. I am a representative of all our opinions and thoughts so feel free to reach out to me if you would like to chat.
Let’s have a great year together, GO CHARGERS!

What is the Student Senate?
We're a group of passionate leaders from public schools across the Halton District School Board. We meet once a month to provide the student perspective on board issues and to voice the questions and concerns of Halton students. The Student Trustees relay these perspectives to the Board of Trustees to ensure that students are being represented.
Each year, we also organize and run the Halton Youth Leadership Symposium, a conference for Halton students.
