Every candidate. Under section 169.1 of the Education Act, every school board promotes student achievement and well-being, ensures effective stewardship of its resources, delivers education programs, develops a multi-year plan and monitors and evaluates its director of education. A trustee takes part in those decisions as a member of the board. Section 218.1 adds that a trustee entrusts the day-to-day management of the board to its staff through the director of education. 12 of 12 zones have a candidate on City of Ottawa’s list so far. ## The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board race 12 of 12 zones - [4 CANDIDATES**Zone 1**City wards 5, 6 and 21](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-1) - [2 CANDIDATES**Zone 2**City wards 4 and 23](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-2) - [3 CANDIDATES**Zone 3**City wards 3 and 24](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-3) - [2 CANDIDATES**Zone 4**City wards 7 and 15](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-4) - [3 CANDIDATES**Zone 5**City wards 8 and 9](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-5) - [4 CANDIDATES**Zone 6**City wards 12 and 13](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-6) - [2 CANDIDATES**Zone 7**City wards 20 and 22](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-7) - [2 CANDIDATES**Zone 8**City wards 1 and 19](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-8) - [3 CANDIDATES**Zone 9**City wards 17 and 18](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-9) - [3 CANDIDATES**Zone 10**City ward 14](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-10) - [3 CANDIDATES**Zone 11**City wards 10 and 16](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-11) - [2 CANDIDATES**Zone 12**City wards 2 and 11](https://voche.me/on/ottawa-2026/races/ocdsb/ocdsb-zone-12) The count on each district is the number of candidates on the official list.
