Today is #PersonsDay.
On this day, in 1929, a groundbreaking decision was made: Canadian women were officially recognized as “persons” under the law.
Special appreciation to the dedicated principals and vice-principals in @SCDSB_Schools. You #MakeADifference within our school communities every day. Thank you!

“One evaluation in Ontario showed that dating violence was reduced by 62 per cent at the end of Grade 11 among students who were taught healthy, non-abusive relationship skills in Grade 9, compared with those who hadn’t been through the program.”
