The following was sent to all TDSB families on October 3rd:
Dear Parents/Guardians,
As you are aware, the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) announced that its members will take further job action on Monday, October 7, 2019, if a new collective agreement is not reached through negotiations with the province and the Council of Trustees Associations. The new job action will be a full withdrawal of services, which is otherwise known as a strike or a walk-out. Over 18,000 employees will not be at work for the duration of the strike, which is almost half of the Toronto District School Board’s employees. Most of these employees work in schools.

Dear Parent/Caregiver,
For those of you who have not met me yet, let me introduce myself. I am your local school trustee. I am your link with the Toronto District School Board, which governs Toronto’s public schools. As your elected representative, I make decisions with the rest of the trustees on the Board and act as your advocate and “sounding board,” should the need arise. We are, more than ever, focused on ensuring that all students have access to the programs, opportunities and supports needed to reach high levels of achievement and well-being.
As the new school year begins, you will find helpful resources for both parents and students hereContinue reading

Effective September 3, 2019, student Home Drives (H: Drive) will be replaced with Google Drive File Stream (G: Drive). This will allow students to use their current TDSB Google Drive for all their storage needs. Existing data in the student H: drives will be accessible, but read-only until March Break, 2020 so that students can access and/or move any needed files. New files can only be saved to the G: drive.
