Conversations Series

Dialogue is the art of conversation across boundaries of difference (Sister (Dr.) Mary Boys, SNJM) 

Welcome! We are excited to kick off the Virtual Conversation Series for the 2024-2025 school year. TDSB parents/caregivers, staff, students, and community are invited to join us for a series of engaging and informative conversations on topics we heard you want to learn more about. Hear from leading experts and participate in shared learning.

These conversations are jointly hosted by the TDSB's Parent and Community Engagement Office (PCCEO), the Parent Involvement Advisory Committee (PIAC), and the Centre of Excellence for Black Student Achievement and generously supported by the Ministry of Education's Grants.

See below for more details about each session including speakers.
