Today is National Custodial Workers Day!

Thank you to all of the amazing caretakers, custodial and maintenance staff for your commitment to our schools and for ensuring the health and safety of whoever walks through our doors.

Learning from @mbrokenleg using the circle of courage to set a positive tone in our grade 6 classroom and nurture four foundations for self-worth. #OPCPQP #TruthAndReconciliation

Thank you to @TOCouncilFire for visiting Northern SS today. Your words and music have put wind under the wings of students at Northern and Kensington CS. The TRC’s Calls to Action were crystallized for many today. @tdsb @UIEC_Tdsb #nssrocks

[Steve Russell @SteveRussell]

Northern Secondary School & Kensington Community School teamed up to honour Truth and Reconciliation Week by collaborating to create custom #EveryChildMatters buttons. Sales of the buttons benefit Toronto Council Fire Native Cultural Centre, whose drummers shared an Honour Song.

Shifting gears:“Early intervention might see an interest in cars as something restrictive that might need to be pared down, but if a typical child showed the same interest, the reaction might be ‘Let’s get you more information on cars,’” #Autism #inclusion https://t.co/dln2bOB9NT

@GiftedTawk Yes!

@Alisongsv @LC4_TDSB @vaneg68 @anewjour @vaneg68 and @anewjour how do I get involved in this project?

[John Malloy @malloy_john]

We have been challenging streaming in #tdsb for awhile. We keep saying it is not just about Grade 9. What attitudes and practices negatively impact students in kindergarten? Are all of our special education programs assisting students who are placed there in early grades? 1/5

[Toronto District School Board @tdsb]

The TDSB continues to be committed to equity & inclusion, and we acknowledge the importance of addressing anti-Black racism. Please read a statement about the recent incidents of anti-Black racism from Chair Robin Pilkey and Director John Malloy: https://t.co/uF0q7IJZek

Instead of engaging in formal negotiations, Minister @sflecce is holding a press conference. Our #OSSTF bargaining team is waiting. #onted #onpoli #NoCutsToEducation #edchat

This Ted Talks speaks about redefining success. It cannot always be about “winning”. If you have a few minutes, it is worth watching. A parent at a recent ward forum sent it to me. Watch it here: https://t.co/dE8IlYq3b1 #tdsb #tdsbdirector

[Catherine M. @cathymai]

My sister just sent me this photo from her office window. She said the support for teachers can be heard on the 20th floor. Music playing: "we won't back down" #cutshurtkids @etfopresident @ETFOeducators @OECTAProv @TECT951 @Sflecce

[Andrew Pearson @pearsonassist]

Lessons from the US, especially Pennsylvania. @Sflecce It starts with cuts to education... https://t.co/YJA1MhXlPP

Currently innovating a data management system w support from @HollyinTO. The goal is to operationalize the IEP with a tool that improves the efficacy of tracking progress, informing planning and providing richer parent communication. #equity

[Andrew Pearson @pearsonassist]

Moving towards a credential program where students make their own 'brainy' buttons for demonstrating independence of specific expectations and 'buddy' buttons for meeting ALT program goals. #Autism @tdsb

[Andrew Pearson @pearsonassist]

@Brightspace helps Ss document their own learning and, in theory, provides evidence for professional conversations around #inclusion @tdsb
