Somali Heritage Month is recognized at the TDSB in October. At the Regular Board meeting held on June 22, 2016, the TDSB Board of Trustees resolved that the month of October in each year, be declared as Somali Heritage Month. The TDSB affirms our commitment to celebrating Somali Heritage Month, and encourages students and staff to take this opportunity to learn about the history, heritage and diversity of the Somali community.

The theme, “Educate Elevate Excel.” from last year was selected one again, and activities organized were prepared in order to continue building on the foundation that what was created last year.
