PARENTS REACHING OUT GRANT APPLICATION TIME EXTENDED ≈
Trustee Code of Conduct Report made Public - April 22, 2009
Toronto Catholic District School Board Supervisor inform Committee that the TCDSB will remain under Supervision until November, 2010.
Arrowsmith program cut as the TCDSB Supervisory Team approve a Budget that did not change despite a feeble attempt at consultation.Parents you need to let the Ministry of Education know that Supervision is not inclusive and is failing to consult with Parents and provide the basic services offered in other School Boards across Ontario.Many Secondary school students going into Grade 12 are being told a number of the courses they planned to take had been cut from the Curriculum at their respective schools. It is time to ask the Minister of Education to retire the Supervisor at the TCDSB.The Supervisor informed the Community Advisory Committee that the Minister of Education can end Supervision at any time.
