Welcome to St Pat's website for Equity & Diversity information and resources! We hope to start the conversation and continue on the journey with you! Be sure to bookmark this page as it will continue to expand throughout the year!
January, we celebrate the richness of Tamil Canadian Heritage Month.
The theme for this year is: HerStories: Success and Resiliency of Tamil Women
St. Patrick is proud to have Ms. Navaratnasingham as the first Tamil Vice Principal in the TCDSB who has pioneered this initiative!
On Wednesday December 15th, the TCDSB will be hosting the I Am King Student Conference for Black male students. This conference will help participants identify, understand, minimize, and eliminate the marginalization experience by Black male students in our schools. The conference is built on the seven principles of Kwanzaa and made to give you, our Black male students a voice.
Learn more about our event, the workshops, speakers, and Kwanzaa and sign up by visiting the website posted in your online classroom spaces or see Ms. C. D'Souza in Guidance
Be sure to sign up before December 10th!
