Your observations and insights are important for the school, and we look forward to learning from your feedback as we continue to evolve the UTS program for our students.

House Island Day Consent Forms Due
June 5

House Island Day will be taking place on June 5.

Please note, there are no classes on June 5, so if a student is not attending House Island Day, they should plan to stay home.

We know this could be challenging for families as we enter the exam period for credit courses.

Please plan now to make alternative arrangements in case the TTC labour issues are not resolved. Students must be present for exams.
