This week, we celebrate with schools across the province to recognize Education Week and highlight the amazing work and initiatives underway in support of equity and students’ well-being and achievement.

The pandemic has continued to have a significant impact on our TDSB community, but in the face of this adversity, we have come together to find new ways to connect, collaborate, learn and support each other.

With that in mind, the focus of this year’s provincial Education Week is #StrongerTogether. Join us to share how we are coming together as an education community to support and prioritize the health and well-being of students and staff, engage all students and maintain connections and support all partners, including parents and families.

A few highlights of how we’re doing this include:

• Launching the Addressing Anti-Asian Racism: An Educators’ Guide
• Encouraging outdoor learning and launched the Taking Learning Outdoors website
• Advocating for vaccine prioritization for education workers so our schools can be safe places to learn and work
• Continuing to plan for the future and approved a 10-year plan to increase opportunities for all students
• Continuing to support families through a variety of forums including the Parents as Partners Conference, Conversation Series, Virtual Drop-In Hours for Mental Health and Well-Being Support

Join us on Twitter to share and follow how our schools are celebrating success and learning in and outside of the classroom. What great things are you doing? Follow and share online using #TDSBedweek or the provincial tag #StrongerTogether and tagging @tdsb!
