School board trustees

Four school boards serve Barrie, and you vote for a trustee on exactly one of them: the board you are registered as a supporter of. The two English boards divide Barrie into trustee zones made up of municipal wards; the two French boards elect across a much wider region.

This list is not final. Nominations remain open until August 21, 2026, and the City Clerk does not certify who is on the ballot until August 24, 2026. People can still file, and can still withdraw.

Which board you vote for is set by your school support designation on the assessment roll, and it does not follow where your children go to school. To check or change it, use the City's voter registration tool; see how to vote.
