What an amazing day we had at the Special Olympics. Congratulations to all the athletes who participated today. #gecdsbgains

Our West Gate Wolves rocked the Special Olympics! Everyone did their best in the events and had so much fun. Thank you @EssexDistrict for hosting! It was a wonderful day.

Some of our grade 8 leaders having powerful conversations around equity and additional changes needed within our society. So proud of them! @WestgateWolves

@Sflecce Can you elaborate on the year-round access to mental health supports in schools? What will that look like? How are you staffing this? School board employees or outsourced? In person or virtual? Staff, families and students would appreciate details. Thanks in advance.

We are building a mental health system that works for children & their families. It starts with year-round access to mental health supports in schools, as well as 24% increase in mental health funding since last year alone.

Thank you @JNolin6 for the wonderful visit to West Gate! Our students and staff appreciated the lessons and calming effects of the mindfulness practices ☺️.

A very patient kiddo is waiting to crack this open! Thank you @JerryCraft for sharing you gift with the world ☺️. Looking forward to all the insightful book chats with my lil man :). If you’re looking for your next good read, this is it!

Ramadan, one of the holiest months in the Islamic calendar, begins today. During Ramadan, many Muslims will abstain from food and water from sunrise to sunset for 30 days. Families will have a pre-dawn meal and then an evening meal to break the fast. The timing of Ramadan changes each year because Muslims follow the lunar calendar. Some Muslims may begin fasting a day earlier and end a day later because of the diversity in the Muslim community. The GECDSB is committed to inclusion and providing needed accommodations for Muslim students and staff. If you need an accommodation, please reach out to your supervisor. For more information, see the Ontario Human Rights Commission: bit.ly/3LAXITi Please join the GECDSB in wishing all Muslim students, coworkers and community members a blessed and peaceful Ramadan. Ramadan Mubarak!

@MissLandrys The halls are shining bright with the kindness of our students, staff and school community 🌟❤️. Thank you @MissLandrys GAINS for displaying and promoting Kindness ☺️.
