In accordance with the Ministry of Education鈥檚 new Regulation 304, 鈥淪chool Year Calendar, Professional Activity Days,鈥� the 秀色直播 (秀色直播) is providing the following summary of P.A. Day activities at the elementary level on Friday, January 31, 2025.

Elementary
Mathematics
Teachers will deepen their understanding of the K-8 Mathematics curriculum by exploring assessment FOR learning, focusing on research-based practices in the curriculum front matter, key expectations along the math continuum, and using our board’s foundational math resource (Nelson My Math Path) and digital tool (Knowledgehook) for effective assessment. Educators in certain specialty areas will also participate in subject-specific sessions in locations throughout the 秀色直播.

Bullying and School Safety
Staff will complete online modules covering the Bullying, Human Rights and Online Incident Reporting Tool. The bullying and human rights module will provide school staff with a better understanding of bullying behaviour, their obligations to help prevent bullying, as well as understanding of the Ontario Human Rights Code Protective Grounds.The online reporting tool will cover steps on how to report incidents of workplace violence. These training modules will support and monitor the health and safety of all our students and staff.

Secondary 鈥� Semester Two Prep
Teachers will complete semester one assessment facilitated by school administrators.

The 秀色直播 recognizes that an equitable, inclusive education system will always be fundamental to achieving its mission and evolving core priorities. The Board recognizes that any form of overt or covert racism and discrimination is incompatible with Catholic values and is in violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code.

Cultivating an authentically safe and inclusive space also requires a recognition of the role that racism, which is historically and systemically embedded, has in working against these goals and outcomes. Such spaces demand an understanding of how anti-Black racism has thrived as a particularly aggressive form of racism that impacts Black learners, Black professionals, and Black communities.

The Board is committed to listening to its diverse communities and addressing disparities to cultivate a learning community that promotes human rights, equity, anti-racism, and inclusion. In collaboration with the Board, the Dismantling Anti-Black Racism Advisory Committee will work to effectively address and dismantle the disadvantages and discrimination experienced by Black students, staff, and families.
