Richmond Hill H.S. is proud of its community involvement. In addition to a number of private sector partnerships, the following community agencies serve our school and its community.

The School Council meets six times a year, the 4th Tuesday of the month at 7:15 p.m. in the school library. The meeting is always open to all parents of our students and the agenda is available on the school PA system, one week in advance. There is an opportunity to introduce new business at every meeting.

School Council Minutes

Student leadership is the foundation of all school initiatives that benefit our student population and community. Examples of student-led councils are the Athletic Council, the Music Council, the History Council and the Student Council. The Student Council is an elected group that represents the views of the entire student body. They lead all school events including fundraising for different charities.

One of the more formal student leadership programs involves the Prefect group. Prefects are student role models who provide leadership throughout the school. These highly motivated and dedicated Grades 10-12 students help welcome new students to Richmond Hill High School through the Grade 9 Orientation Camp program, and assist at multiple in-school functions. Moreover, Prefects assume the role of student ambassadors at events involving parents and the community, including Curriculum and Parents' Nights, Awards Assemblies, and Commencement. Finally, Prefects are encouraged to participate in leadership training, to fundraise and support worthy causes, including the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

Richmond Hill High School is proud of all of its students. We make every effort to recognize student achievement, including:
