The Toronto District School Board is working on a Multi-Year Strategic Plan and wants to hear from you!
The Multi-Year Strategic Plan will act as a high level statement of intent for the TDSB for the next three or more school years, set direction and identify system goals to support its 246,000 students and 583 schools. We value input from parents/guardians, families, students and staff and invite you to provide feedback on the draft Multi-Year Strategic Plan documents. To learn more and provide input online, please visit: www.tdsb.on.ca/MYSP.
On April 11 it is The International Day of Pink. This is a day of action, born when a youth in a high school in Cambridge, Nova Scotia was bullied because he wore a pink shirt to school. His fellow students decided to stand up to bullying; and hundreds of students came to school wearing pink to show support for diversity and stopping discrimination, gender-based bullying, homophobia and transphobia.
Students and staff are encouraged to wear pink in support of diversity. The International Day of Pink is more than just a symbol of a shared belief in celebrating diversity - it's also a commitment to being open minded, to being understanding of differences and to learning to respect each other.
Don’t forget that Friday is our Dance-a-thon. We are raising money for our school and for the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund in support of First Nations reconciliation. Let’s keep that support coming and let’s dance, dance, and dance!!
