What’s Happening Across Our Board

Rainbow Day 🌈 ~ Wednesday, June 1st

We will launch Pride Month at HCDSB with a system-wide Rainbow Day on Wednesday, June 1st – a day to love and celebrate one another, just as God loves and celebrates each one of us because we are all wonderfully made. 

In keeping with the Board motion passed on January 18th, 2022, the Pride Flag will be raised at each school and the Catholic Education Centre. The flag will be flown throughout the month of June.

Pride Awareness Day 🏳️‍🌈 ~ Tuesday, June 14th

On Tuesday, June 14th, we will hold a system-wide Pride Awareness Day – a day to reaffirm our commitment to honour the dignity and worth of each member of our community by nurturing safe, welcoming and inclusive schools.

There are a number of learning activities and events planned across our district throughout the month of June.
