We are the education workers who make public education possible in the York Region District School Board (YRDSB). From classrooms to offices, libraries to technology services, our knowledge, skills, and dedication keep schools safe, welcoming, and running smoothly so every student has the foundation to succeed.
We are more than 3,300 members strong across over 70 classifications, united by our shared commitment to inclusive, equitable, and well-resourced schools where every student can thrive.
Through the Ontario School Board Council of Unions (OSBCU), we join with 57,000 CUPE education workers across Ontario to defend public education and fight for the respect and resources our work deserves. Our collective strength gives us the power to take on challenges at the local and provincial level and to win improvements for education workers, students, and communities.
We are part of Canada’s largest union, a movement of 700,000 CUPE members across the country. Our union reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, bringing many cultures, languages, abilities, and experiences to our work. Whether full-time, part-time, or in precarious positions, we stand together for equity, fairness, and strong public services for all.
Through our connection to the Toronto & York Region Labour Council, we build solidarity with other workers to strengthen our collective voice and push for lasting change.
