TCDSB IS DOCUMENTING THE HISTORY OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION IN TORONTO--ALUMNI, PAST & PRESENT STAFF INVITED TO CONTRIBUTE

The Toronto Catholic District School Board has approved the writing of a complete history of Catholic education in the City of Toronto. This history will give recognition to all those who have contributed to the development of the strong publicly funded Catholic school system that exists today.

The author of the history will be Dr. Robert T. Dixon, who is a recognized author and legal consultant on Catholic schools in the province of Ontario. An advisory group will work with Dr. Dixon, with the goal of completing the history sometime during the 2005 calendar year.

To provide authentic information, the author and the advisory group are inviting individuals who may possess records, photographs and other relevant materials (particularly from the early days of Toronto’s Catholic schools) to submit such items for consideration and information.

Items should have as much information as possible on the people, schools or events depicted. Items will be returned provided the sender includes a return address with the submission.

Submissions should be sent to: Dr. Robert T. Dixon Toronto Catholic District School Board, 80 Sheppard Avenue East, North York, ON M2N 6E8 416-222-8282, extension 2162 [email protected]

JOHN BROOKS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS

The John Brooks Community Foundation is a volunteer-based organization founded in 1981 to assist in the development and support of young people. The foundation aims to motivate students of African descent to achieve academic excellence and to give them an awareness of their importance in society. Since its inception, we have distributed over $110,000 in scholarships and bursaries to over 650 students, in particular, young people of African descent, in middle school, secondary school and those entering post-secondary studies.

The Foundation aims to motivate students to achieve academic excellence and to give students an awareness of their importance to society through social programs and the scholarship fund. The Foundation presents awards annually to students from Grade 7 to 12 in order to encourage them to work harder towards their goals.

London Catholic School Board 'contracts out' When Alberto Dirienzo retired from St. John’s School in the Toronto Catholic District School Board, he was given full honours. In a school assembly on May 11w which lasted over an hour, every class got up and thanked the head caretaker for the extraordinary dedication and service he had given the St. John’s community. “There wasn’t a dry eye in the house,” said vice principal Cathy Banfield, “as class after class got up and told Mr. Darien how much they had appreciated his work and concern for them. One class even gave him a golden broom and dustpan, When you think of the service this man has given this board for 21 years, it was totally warranted. It really was the curriculum brought to life, a celebration of community and everybody’s part in that community.” Later in the evening, the entire staff gathered with former principals (including Kevin Scott who travelled from Niagara to add his kudos) and the Dirienzo family. There the well-respected caretaker thanked his other “famiglia.” Catholic New Times, June 6, 2004

Captain Jason Feiko Visits St. Anthony School

The students of St. Anthony School were very privileged by the visit of Captain J. Feiko of The Royal Canadian Forces in Petawawa. Captain J. Feiko share with our Junior and Intermediate students his first hand experiences of Canada's Peacekeeping Mission in Afghanistan. The slides and commentary provided by Captain J. Feiko gave meaning, life, and relevance, for our students as to Canada's significant Global Peacekeeping role. The students and staff were left with a heightened awareness and appreciation of the daily sacrifices made by the men and women in the Canadian Forces for the benefit of others.

St. Anthony’s thanks Captain J. Feiko for his moving presentation, for his peacekeeping work, and for renewing in staff and students the pride of being Canadian. St. Anthony’s wishes him well, and hopes that he is able to make a return visit to the family of TCDSB schools.

Student reaping value of education

Stephen Brown, East York Mirror, June 4, 2004

Education pays. St. Patrick Catholic Secondary School student Meron Asmelash, 18, discovered that recently when the company where she is doing her co-operative education placement offered her the opportunity to take a $2,000 computer course free of charge.

And the downtown company that made the Grade 12 student the offer, Alias, has quite the reputation itself in the computer business, having made a lot of news recently for designing the software for special effects in such movies as Finding Nemo, Lord of The Rings and The Matrix.

"They thought it would be helpful for me," said Asmelash, who wants to be a graphic artist.

"It's a program that is recognizable in the industry, so having working knowledge would really help me get my foot in the door. It's great."

Asmelash said her placement at Alias, which started in mid-April and ends in mid-June, is her first job. She works in the company's marketing department doing Internet tasks.

"It's different," Asmelash said. "I like that. It's not like school. You have to be there. You have to discipline yourself. You have to make sure all the tasks are done. I love it there. It's fun."

INTERVIEW PROCESS

Sandy Slosel, St. Patrick's teacher monitor for the school's co-op education program, said Asmelash went through a rigorous interview process to get the Alias placement.

"She was selected because of her maturity level, her knowledge of computer software, design sense and work ethic," Slosel said. "It's a unique opportunity. She is doing work they expect a full-time worker to do."

Co-op education programs exist at most high schools. They place senior students with companies in the community to expose them to the working world before graduation as well as to help develop career choices.

St. Pat's, Slosel said, currently has 40 students placed with employers ranging from daycare centres to automotive garages.

"We accommodate all skills," Slosel said.

Called Introduction Maya, it concerns Alias-developed graphic software that people from all over the world come to Toronto to take.

JOB OPPORTUNITIES

Asmelash said she's grateful for the opportunity, especially since the course is currently beyond her financial means. As well, she recommends co-op education to her fellow teens, saying it's a good way to research further job opportunities. "For me, it's just made me want to become a graphic designer even more," she said. "...It's just made me more determined."
