Ward 1 Rexdale Elementary Schools: Pupil Accommodation Review - Open House Ward 1 Rexdale Elementary Schools: Pupil Accommodation Review - Open House 1. Why are we here? The Toronto District School Board (TDSB) is looking to increase program options, reduce distance travelled by students and parents, and plan for future residential development in the Rexdale community. As mandated by the Ministry of Education, school boards must establish a Pupil Accommodation Review Committee when they are considering the future of a school or group of schools. At the Board meeting on December 15, 2010, the TDSB approved the establishment of a Pupil Accommodation Review Committee for this community. This review will look at expanding one or more schools, changing the grades offered, changing school boundaries, and/or moving programs into or out of a school. Schools named in this review: 1. Albion Heights JMS 2. Elmbank JMA 3. Greenholme JMS 4. Humberwood Downs JMA 5. Melody Village JS 2. What is a Pupil Accommodation Review Committee (PARC)? A Pupil Accommodation Review Committee (PARC) is a committee mandated by the Ministry of Education that a school board must establish when it is determining the future of a school or group of schools. The Ministry of Education has set out a specific guideline that school boards and PARCs must follow. A PARC must hold a series of public meetings to receive input from the community. The Committee makes recom- mendations about the schools named in its mandate in order to inform the Board; however, the Board of trustees makes the final decisions about the schools. 3. What is a PARC Report? sThe PARC report must include recommendations that are consistent with the objectives outlined in the Terms of Reference. The report will be given to the Director and will be posted on the Board’s website. Toronto District School Board staff will also make its recommendations in a report to the trustees. Both reports will be submitted to the trustees who will make the final decisions. 1 Ward 1 Rexdale Elementary Schools: Pupil Accommodation Review - Open House 4.

  • Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Nature-Based Recreation
    Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Nature-based Recreation 2008 Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Nature-based Recreation EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The variety of landscapes, features and nature-based recreation destinations in the Humber River watershed provide potential for a wide range of recreational activities including walking, hiking, cross-country skiing, wildlife-viewing, picnicking, camping, bicycling, horseback riding, golfing, fishing, swimming and exploring cultural heritage sites. • Urban development and population growth in Humber watershed municipalities will likely result in increased use of existing greenspace and nature-based recreation facilities and demand for additional greenspace and facilities. • There are approximately 8,800 hectares of public greenspace in the Humber River watershed (10% of the watershed). Most of the greenspace is owned by the TRCA (6,644 hectares or 75%). The quantity of greenspace in the Humber watershed increased by 243 hectares between 2000 and 2005. • Oak Ridges Corridor Park, created through the transfer of 428 hectares of land from private owners and developers to the Province of Ontario in 2004, protects the last remaining natural corridor link between eastern and western parts of the Oak Ridges Moraine in Richmond Hill and represents a major addition to the Humber watershed greenspace system. • The length of inter-regional trails in the Humber River watershed totals 213 km. The total length of inter-regional trails has increased by 28 km since 2000 and an additional 15 km of inter-regional trails are proposed to be built in the watershed. • Numerous municipalities have proposed new local trails in the Humber River watershed, totaling 168 km in length.

  • Disrupting Toronto's Urban Space Through the Creative (In)Terventions
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Institutional Repository of the Ibero-American Institute, Berlin Disrupting Toronto’s Urban Space through the Creative (In)terventions of Robert Houle Alterando el espacio urbano de Toronto a través de las (in)tervenciones creativas de Robert Houle Julie Nagam University of Winnipeg and Winnipeg Art Gallery, Canada [email protected] Abstract: is essay addresses the concealed geographies of Indigenous histories in the City of Toronto, Canada, through selected artworks that address history, space, and place. e research is grounded in the idea that the selected artworks narrate Indigenous stories of place to visually demonstrate an alternative cartography that challenges myths of settlement situated in the colonial narratives of archaeology and geography. Indigenous artist Robert Houle has created artworks that narrate Indigenous stories of place using the memories and wisdom of Indigenous people in areas of art, archaeology, and geography (land). is visual map is grounded in the premise that the history of the land is embodied in Indigenous knowledge of concealed geographies and oral histories. It relies upon concepts of Native space and place to demonstrate the signicance of the embodied knowledges of Indigenous people and highlights the importance of reading the land as a valuable archive of memory and history. Keywords: Indigenous; art; geographies; space; urban; Toronto; Canada; 20th-21st centuries. Resumen: Este ensayo aborda las geografías ocultas de las historias indígenas en la ciudad de Toronto, Canadá, a través de obras de arte seleccionadas que abordan la historia, el espacio y el lugar. La investigación se basa en la idea de que las obras seleccionadas narran historias de lugar indígenas para mostrar visualmente una cartografía alternativa que desafía los mitos de asentamiento situados en las narrativas coloniales de la arqueología y la geografía.

  • The 2020 Learning Opportunities Index: Questions and Answers
    THE 2020 LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES INDEX: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q1. What is the Learning Opportunities Index (LOI)? A1. The LOI ranks each school based on measures of external challenges affecting student success. The school with the greatest level of external challenges is ranked number one and is described as highest on the index. It is important to acknowledge that students in all schools have some external challenges, even those schools that are ranked very low on the LOI. The LOI measures relative need and compares all schools on exactly the same set of data collected in a consistent, reliable, and objective manner. The LOI removes the subjectivity that may shape perceptions of individual school needs. There are two indices – one for elementary schools and one for secondary schools. Under various names, the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) and its legacy systems have calculated some variation of the index for over 50 years. After a year-long review and external consultation with stakeholders in 2007-08, the 2009 calculation of the index was recommended by a steering committee consisting of board staff and representatives from the Inner City Advisory Committee. This 2020 LOI uses the same methodology employed in 2009 though with updated data. Q2. Why has the LOI been developed? A2. Public education is designed to give all children an equal opportunity to succeed. The TDSB recognizes that students face varying degrees of challenge which can impact their opportunity to achieve high educational outcomes. Educational research has demonstrated that children from lower income families face more significant barriers in achieving high educational outcomes.
