Repair backlogs are in the billions. No AC in the schools means June is HOT. MUCH less music in the schools - that has been slashed! TDSB schools had to choose between music library and gym funding. Who puts the efforts into concerts, afterschool sports and extraC’s? Teachers. etfo.ca

Past experience with kids in schools - join the parent council for info + support the school. Parent fundraising = important extras. Check the school website. Has your school board has been taken over by the ONgov? The TDSB has been recently & seriously strapped for funds - cut by ONgov.
