Indigenous Peoples Month and Pride Month
Dear Families,
With June upon us and the end of the school year on the horizon, I would like to take time to bring attention to two important celebrations that will be taking place this month in our district.
Indigenous Peoples Month
June is Indigenous Peoples Month and an important opportunity to recognize, celebrate and learn about the rich history, heritage and cultures of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples of Turtle Island.
Multifaith Calendar
Last week, we received concerns regarding a social media post and an email explaining the rationale for the use of a Menorah as the symbol for Jewish holidays and observances. In response we made a commitment to review and make changes to the Board’s online calendar to ensure it is representative of Jewish identity.
Message from the Director
We have received concerns regarding a social media post and an email explaining the rationale for the use of a Menorah as the symbol for Jewish holidays and observances. This symbol has been used by the Multifaith Action Society in the multifaith calendar for several years and no change was made this year. However, as a result of feedback received regarding the existing symbolism, we will be making changes to the Board’s online calendar to ensure it is representative of Jewish identity.
