Students at Sir Wilfrid Laurier SS are working on a mural that reflects the wide diversity of the student population. With the help of Indigenous artist Mike Cywink, this student-driven art piece will be a colourful representation of the many cultures present at the school.

The Black Student Association at Sir Wilfrid Laurier SS serves to affirm and support Black students while creating a sense of community. The group meets monthly and invites guest speakers that help students discover academic and post-secondary pathways.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier SS’s Muslim Student Association meets each week to perform Friday prayer and connect with each other in a social setting. Student associations play a significant role in ensuring that students feel safe, welcome and accepted in a school community.
