York Catholic District School Board

Board Trustees don't contact you back even though they are elected by municipal elections, therefore not accountable to the constituents.Board Trustees don't believe in inclusion and discriminate.

The fact you had to install Zscaler on the school laptops and computers is absolutely saddening. Please do better

Shameful that they allowed grown adults to bully, harras and intimidate students trying to express their rights to exits. Shameful anti catholic behaviour. Your job is to protect kids not drive them closer to suicide and negative mental health outcomes. Shame on you

Unfortunately YCDSB has taken on the new normal. What is the new normal in publicly funded education? No accountability, entitlement and a caustic environment where students are the last on the list of priorities and faculty, maintenance facilities right up to the head of education are more concerned with do as little as possible with an extremely bloated compensation package. Should ashamed of yourselves. No surprise that most of the reviews are 1 star. To give it some context I have spoken to a number of custodial staff who are verbally abused on a daily basis from staff. It's sad that this type of behaviour is common place in education today. It's amazing the entitled behaviour from staff, faculty right up to procurement departments and head of education, especially for a board that has links to some of the darkest periods in educational history in Canada. It's a deplorable environment. I would encourage parents to seek alternative eduction choices for your children.

It's disappointing non-Catholics are enrolling their children into a YCDSB high school because of its rank, IB program, or some other reason and being admitted. These children do not belong in practicing households and they haven't a clue about the teachings of the Catholic church. Some belong to other divisions of Christianity and others, the childs' baptism is obtained for admission purposes. This makes it unfair for families who are in keeping with the practices of the Catholic faith. Religious education has also declined over time (as noted by others). In some communities there is little regard for religion. There needs to be a much stricter admissions policy control in response to a changing Canada. Consider renaming the Catholic public schools and privatizing those for genuine Catholics.

Important institution that represents its students and parent body.Trustees communicate effectively with parents and are available to answers questions often.

I am disgusted by your decision to not fly the Pride Flag at your schools. There is nothing Christian about this decision. Christ was always inclusive in his teachings , especially as regards to children.We should not have a Separate School Board - it only causes division in our society.

If I had known some things in childhood, not much would have happened to me, maybe I would understand that I am not sick and not alone through this flag.

School board does nothing to prevent the constant issues of misbehaving students, horrible teachers, and discrimination. The board meeting recently is an amazing example of how this school board does nothing to keep minorities safe. DO NOT enroll your kids in any school under this board unless you want them to end up with severe mental issues.

This school board only accepts the ORIGINAL copy of the baptismal certificate of my son, myself, or my wife, and would not consider an ORIGINAL copy of my marriage certificate as proof that we are Catholics. The school board should consider this as additional proof as this is a legal document. We never had an issue with other school boards. Oh well! =)
