Adjournment October 2010 Applause! The Toronto Star Teacher Award The Toronto Star Teacher Award, in its second year, recognizes one Ontario teacher for exceptional service to students. More than 80 nominations were submitted by students, parents and colleagues from across the province. The winners and honourable mentions were selected by representatives from the Star, the Ontario Teachers’ Federation and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. Bernadette Taylor-Dohla The Toronto Star Teacher of the Year for 2010 is Bernadette Taylor-Dohla of Baythorn Public School in Thornhill. She was nominated by twin students Paige and Brady Madsen for being “the best teacher who ever will exist.” Bernadette, who once sang musicals on the Shaw Festival stage, now uses her acting skills to captivate Grade 7 students in the arts program at Baythorn Public School. She teaches drama and also uses her unique talents to weave drama into every subject from history to math. She teaches math students MC Hammer's “Can't Touch This!” to remind them not to touch denominators when adding fractions. We are also thrilled to announce that of the 80 nomination, seven other YRDSB teachers were also recognized with nominations: o Shirley Dalrymple, Thornhill Secondary School o Katrine Doganglu, Richmond Hill High School o Dan Grant, Bayview Hill Elementary School o Jay Major, Northern Lights Public School o Elizabeth St. Jean, Boxwood Public School o Mark Warling, Roselawn Public School o Natalie Zuchlinski, Kettle Lakes Public School Congratulations to our Toronto Star Teacher of the Year, Bernadette, and all our teachers who were nominated for this prestigious award. Antiracism & Ethnocultural Equity Education Awards: 2009-2010 The Race Relations Advisory Committee has developed the Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity Education Awards, which recognize schools and other Board locations whose practices have: • Assisted with the implementation of the Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity Policy #260. • Supported student learning. • Involved as many partners of the school community as possible. October 2010 Applause! The 2009-10 school yeare marked the 15th anniversary of this award. This year’s recipients are: Middlefield Collegiate Institute The Community Outreach Team (COT) at Middlefield Collegiate Institute has been hosting a cultural Exchange Event called Mélange for the past four years. Mélange is a cultural exchange between two very culturally different and diverse schools. The concept of Mélange was sparked by an idea shared at a Character Education Conference in 2006. Through Mélange, students and staff promote the YRDSB Character Traits as well as antiracism and ethnocultural equity via a fun-filled day that incorporates informational workshops and hands-on activities. Mélange promotes positive and respectful relations between members of different school communities. The underlying message from this initiative is that although we are different, we have many similarities and should not hide behind stereotypes but we should make an effort to meet people different from ourselves. The success and popularity of Mélange gave birth to Global Fusion, an event at Middlefield C.I. for grades 9 and 10 students, (patterned on Mélange) which is intended to foster an environment of understanding and appreciation of diversity through education. Congratulations Middlefield C.I. for taking on this initiative and providing the opportunity for students and staff to understand different cultures! Wilclay Public School Over the years, Wilclay Public School has demonstrated leadership in the area of Antiracist Education by participating in a number of related activities and events. This school year has been no exception. In December 2009, the school hosted a Multicultural Fair showcasing the many cultural traditions of the school community. This event provided a unique opportunity for parents and staff to work together and celebrate the diversity of the Wilclay community. The school also put together various other activities to celebrate the Lunar New Year, African Heritage Month, March 21 (The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination), Fundraising for Haiti, as well as hosted their 3rd Community Roundtable event to address the needs of their multilingual parent community. The school will also be hosting an Asian and South Asian Heritage day on June 22 in honour of Asian/South Asian Heritage Month, providing the opportunity for students and staff to participate in many activities to help develop an understanding of different cultures of South East Asia. Keep it up Wilclay! Richmond Rose Public School With students from over 40 birth countries, Richmond Rose Public School serves a very diverse community where the majority of students come from families where more than one language is spoken. To support and celebrate the various cultures, the school’s Diversity Committee has October 2010 Applause! initiated a variety of activities and events over the years. As such, students see themselves represented through the activities, displays, resources and events in the school. Some of the activities include; announcements highlighting Significant Faith Days and artistic displays of the same; Lunar New Year’s Parade, multicultural winter celebrations and new this year, Abilities Awareness Day, which has made an impact on students from the school’s two community classes. Students and staff also participated in a Holiday Sing-Along before the winter break to celebrate the diverse holidays that take place around December and early January. Well Done Richmond Rose! Maple Creek Public School This year Maple Creek Public School hosted three exciting projects which contributed to Antiracism and Ethnocultural Equity Education. Grade 8 students participated in a “Trade Summit” which provided them with the opportunity to learn about the valuable resources of different countries and the importance of international connections for Canada’s well-being and influence in the world. The Heritage Night event provided students, staff, and the school community the opportunity to learn more about and celebrate the various cultures that make up the Maple Creek community. The Maple Creek Olympics engaged all the students and staff at the school. Participants were organized in teams and participated in the “Opening Ceremony” dressed in costumes that represented their countries, providing the opportunity for students to learn about different countries. Thank You Maple Creek! Armitage Village Public School Armitage Village Public School has initiated and participated in a variety of multicultural activities to support and promote diversity within the school and the school community over the past year. During Black History Month, classes were introduced to stories of slavery and students from all grades were involved in creating a quilt, depicting the route to freedom by African Americans. Amongst other activities, there was a Chinese Dragon Dance in honour of the Lunar New Year and a showcase of artwork related to Chinese culture. Students also had the opportunity to listen to motivational speaker Errol Lee, and participated in the assembly as well as learning about the history of the Steel Pan from Earle La Pierre, a renowned steel pannist. The school also promoted in-class discussion about the Civil Rights Movement and about perception vs. reality, concluding with the realization that we live in a very diverse community. Additionally, the school has a “Community Voice” parent group program, a welcoming program for newcomer families, whereby parents volunteer to provide the necessary information about the school (to other parents) in different languages
