Nowruz, referring to spring equinox, is a symphony of new beginnings symbolizing rebirth of nature.
As tradition, a ceremonial table is organized with 7 items each starting with the letter S or Seen in Farsi.
The 7 items symbolize aspects of good fortune for the coming year.
On April 8, 2024, all YRDSB schools will dismiss students early.
This early dismissal is a result of the forthcoming solar eclipse.
