Diana Mills
Your Voice for Zone 10
OCDSB Trustee Candidate in Somerset Ward 14
Meet DianaA Community Voice for Public Education
Zone 10 is home to vibrant, diverse families who believe in the power of public education. As a long-time Ottawa resident and engaged community member, I have seen first-hand the challenges and opportunities facing our schools — from student mental health to inclusive classrooms and the need for stronger community partnerships.
I am running for OCDSB Trustee because I believe every child in Zone 10 deserves a school environment where they feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. Trustees play a critical role in shaping Board policy, overseeing budgets, and ensuring that the voices of families and educators are heard at the decision-making table.
With a background in community service and a deep commitment to public education, I am ready to bring steady, principled leadership to the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board. I will work with the elected Trustees, the Supervisor and CEO/CFO to restore the Board's independence. Together, we can build schools that serve every student's needs.

What I Stand For
Student Well-being
Mental health supports, safe and inclusive school environments, and programs that address the whole child — not just academic outcomes.
Inclusive Education
Every student deserves to see themselves reflected in the curriculum and to receive the accommodations and supports they need to thrive.
Community Engagement
Transparent governance, meaningful consultation with parents, educators, and the community and a trustee who shows up and listens.
