As #Ramadan approaches, a little baseline knowledge and some small actions can go a long way in creating belonging for students our structures weren't designed for

I made a point of really aggressively hyperlinking this story. There's some good research and data hidden in this piece — with shout-outs to the almighty @zeynep, @DFisman and others. macleans.ca/opinion/how-did-…

As a constituent and non-Indigenous educator I am asking you @C_Mulroney As my MPP for #yorksimcoe please voice the importance of continuing the work begun with curriculum revisions in response to the TRC’s Calls to Action. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue, but a human one.

#MentalHealthWeek is coming to an end but fostering positive mental health is an ongoing commitment. After reflecting on your well-being this week, what is the one thing you have decided to start doing to care for your mental health moving forward? #yrdsbMH #NoticeListenConnect

You'd never say, "it's just cancer, get over it". So why is different with mental illnesses? This #MentalHealthWeek, let's end the stigma and realize our mental health is as important as our physical health.

This. This brings me joy in so many ways. It grounds me. It helps me reflect & remember what is important. It connects me to the bigger picture. It reminds me of my privilege. It invites gratitude on many levels. @VivianORC @MilneOEC @SwanLakeOE @SibbaldPointOEC #borc #yrdsbMH

#YRDSB show us how you are fostering positive mental health for yourself and then encourage others to do the same! For example, share what brings you joy and then challenge a friend to do the same! #yrdsbMH #NoticeListenConnect nitter.gq/mcassidy905/status/992…
