Toronto Catholic Parent Involvement Committee
@CPICToronto
Provincially mandated/funded committee. Supports student academic achievement by increased parent involvement as per Reg. 612/00, Ed. Act.

Better access for parents means better outcomes for students. Our government is requiring school boards to establish Student and Family Support Offices to give families clear answers and timely solutions when it comes to their child’s education. news.ontario.ca/en/release/100…



Ontario teachers don’t need special credit cards. They need a government that properly funds schools! #OSSTF President @marthahradowy spoke with The Trillium this week about the Premier’s comments on giving teachers “purchase cards” to buy supplies, and how it is unclear whether this would even work. But why are educators paying out of pocket for basic classroom needs in the first place? Could it have something to do with the $6.3 billion this government has taken away from #OntEd schools since 2018? Ontario’s students deserve far better than cuts: bit.ly/3LYY0IU


New today: Ontario’s education minister says he’s “not embarrassed” that school boards are being forced to pay $350k annually to the supervisors he appointed. Paul Calandra calls it an “appropriate amount of money” for them to limit school board spending. Watch our exchange:

Ontario’s education minister said he banned livestreams of school board meetings to “bring down the temperature.” Critics fired back, telling him to “fund the system” if he wants to cool things down. Paul Calandra’s now “taking another look” at the ban after parent backlash.








@Freire1Pb @CPICToronto @OntAutism Teacher’s unions need to speak out about the future without locally elected trustees - but they aren’t.

Trumpeter Ford's authoritarian alleged table of contents. Fund public healthcare like Lecce funded education below the rate of inflation by $6.35B leaving children in overcrowded classrooms, classrooms without teachers, boards without trustees and schools literally falling apart.
