Nominations are open today in elections for Yukon’s two school boards: Commission scolaire francophone du Yukon (CSFY) and the First Nations School Board (FNSB). The nomination period is open until 12pm, Thursday, November 6, 2025.

School board elections are held every three years in November. They are held concurrently, share the same polling places, and have the same voting options and times. They are administered as separate elections.

There are five trustee positions for each board open to candidates from all across the territory. Eligibility as a candidate in the school board elections is based on those electors with minority language rights for CSFY elections, ancestral language for FNSB elections, and parents of students attending a school or program operated by either school board.

Nomination packages are available on electionsyukon.ca or in school board schools. Candidates can bring their completed nomination forms to Elections Yukon at 402 Hanson Street, email them to [email protected] or bring them in-person to a returning officer at Takhini Elementary School or Centre scolaire secondaire communautaire Paul-Émile Mercier between 10am-12pm on November 6, 2025.

Eligible electors are located in communities all across the Yukon. They will have three different options to vote. By mail (October 24-November 6), by internet vote (November 7-November 17), and in-person at one of up to 11 polling places throughout the territory (November 17).

More information about the school board elections is available online and in the appendix. Additional information is also available from the school board websites: fnsb.ca and cfsy.ca.
