As #Ramadan approaches, a little baseline knowledge and some small actions can go a long way in creating belonging for students our structures weren't designed for

I made a point of really aggressively hyperlinking this story. There's some good research and data hidden in this piece — with shout-outs to the almighty @zeynep, @DFisman and others. https://t.co/nG5bq5uQ5s

As a constituent and non-Indigenous educator I am asking you @C_Mulroney As my MPP for #yorksimcoe please voice the importance of continuing the work begun with curriculum revisions in response to the TRC’s Calls to Action. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue, but a human one.

#MentalHealthWeek is coming to an end but fostering positive mental health is an ongoing commitment. After reflecting on your well-being this week, what is the one thing you have decided to start doing to care for your mental health moving forward? #yrdsbMH #NoticeListenConnect

[Norm Kelly @norm]

You'd never say, "it's just cancer, get over it". So why is different with mental illnesses? This #MentalHealthWeek, let's end the stigma and realize our mental health is as important as our physical health.

@EduMacD @WellKat18 @Justina_So @NatWhitehouse10 @NGymnopoulos This. This brings me joy in so many ways. It grounds me. It helps me reflect & remember what is important. It connects me to the bigger picture. It reminds me of my privilege. It invites gratitude on many levels. @VivianORC @MilneOEC @SwanLakeOE @SibbaldPointOEC #borc #yrdsbMH
