Our goal is to support the success of our students, to promote a life-long enjoyment of reading, and to provide knowledge building experiences with 24/7 access to information in a welcoming environment that is conducive to learning.
We strive to achieve this goal through attention to Equity, Well Being and Achievement.
This September 30 will be the second National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, in addition to being the 8th annual Orange Shirt Day.
Together the TDSB recognizes the legacy of Canada’s residential school system and continues to learn the many truths of these institutions.
We honour First Nations, Métis, and Inuit children and communities impacted by this system. During Truth and Reconciliation Week, September 26 to 30, we encourage schools to participate in events offered by the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation.
Visit the Urban Indigenous Education Centre’s resource page for learning resources and events. Check out the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation poster with additional information here.
To discover many videos, articles and images to support learning about National Day for Truth and Reconciliation please search our TDSB Virtual Library.

The orange colour represents truth-telling and healing. The pathway represents the road to reconciliation. First Nations, Inuit and Métis are represented in the image.

We hope this newsletter will be a support to you as we read, research, and learn together at Lawrence Park C.I. Library Learning Commons.
