Secondary School Parent Information Nights

Parents of Students in Grade Eight

The selection of a Secondary School for your child is extremely important and can be somewhat confusing. By the end of November all Grade 8 students will be bringing home a brochure entitled “Choices for Nine”. This brochure provides you with an overview of all the programs offered in Secondary Schools in the Toronto District School Board. To ensure clear understanding of the expectations and procedure for entry into Secondary School, we are inviting you and your child to an information meeting.

Where: Parkdale Public School
78 Seaforth Ave; 416-393-1280
When: Tuesday, October 27, 2009 at 6:45 p.m.

To help you in selecting a Secondary School with your child, we have invited representatives from our local South West 2 Secondary Schools to speak with you in a storefront forum.
