LPCI Library Learning Commons March 31, 2023 Newsletter

Engage, Inspire, Empower

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.

The TDSB character trait for this month is honesty. We continue to emphasize that using information ethically and legally is one way you can exercise honesty.

March is Greek Heritage Month at the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). It is an occasion to recognize and celebrate the many achievements and contributions of Greek Canadians to Canada, an occasion to mark and enjoy the history of Greek culture. See our resource page for Greek Heritage Month for links to more information.
