End of week announcements

WASHROOM CHANGES
Starting Monday, SOLE student washrooms will be available for one student per washroom at a time. Students are asked to lock the main washroom door behind them when they enter to use the washroom.

TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION
Next week is Truth and Reconciliation Week. Thurs. Sept 30 is Orange Shirt Day and National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. SOLE teachers will be engaging you in activities to help us all reflect on the legacy of residential schools and ongoing colonialism, and to think about how we can build justice for Indigenous people.

Here is a short video by the founder of Orange Shirt Day about how it all started.

See below for more information of Truth and Reconciliation.

STUDENT COUNCIL
If you are interested in participating in SOLE’s student council body (a.k.a. “Student Voice Group”), please contact Caitlin at caitlin.hewitt-white@tdsb.on.ca by Friday Oct. 1 at noon. Participation is on a volunteer basis – we won’t be having elections for positions. So, if you’re interested, get in touch! You will be expected to participate in weekly meetings to help plan fun activities for students and to take action on important youth issues.
