Youth Equity Council
What is the Youth Equity Council?
The Youth Equity Council is comprised of diverse young leaders who will help to provide district leadership and the Equity Council important feedback, as we collaboratively work to make the Boulder Valley School District more equitable – ever striving to provide excellence for every student and addressing the decades of achievement and opportunity gaps. We know that it is extremely important that students, especially those most impacted, be involved in the conversation.
Through participation in the Youth Equity Council, students will explore various aspects of their own identities. With a better understanding of their own identity, they will understand how injustices impact them and use this knowledge to develop their own leadership and activism skills in order to make positive changes in their schools and communities.
The BVSD Youth Equity Council is currently accepting new applications from 8th-12th graders in BVSD. The deadline to apply is September 17, 2025.
Students who are interested in social change, inclusion, & belonging, are encouraged to apply.

In BVSD, student voice isn’t just encouraged—it’s essential. This fall, two dynamic student-led organizations—the Green Youth Council and the Youth Equity Council—will be welcoming new middle and high school members. Applications will open early in the fall semester, offering a unique opportunity for students to lead meaningful change across the district.
