The school board has families of schools (Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, and Brock/Uxbridge/Scugog), each of which has two trustees except Oshawa, which has three. Three student trustees, using a non-binding, recorded vote, represent the region of Durham. In total the school board has more than 7000 staff who serve approximately 46 000 elementary and 24 000 secondary school students.
A unique program to the Durham District School Board that is running in a number of its secondary schools is called the Culture of Peace Committee, which works on a wide variety of social and humanitarian issues within the schools and in the community.
The Durham District School Board operates a gifted program in select schools. This program is an enrichment course that teaches at an accelerated rate, for students from Grade 4 to 12. Students are given a test in mathematics, logic and literacy in Grade 3. Students who show themselves to be in the top 1% of students in the region are accepted into the program.
