The school board is hoping to implement its Anti-Black Racism Strategy in February 2025.
TVDSB - An Anti-Black Racism Strategy is in the works for the Thames Valley District School Board.
Director of Education Mark Fisher broke the news earlier this week.
"I am proud to announce that work is underway on an Anti-Black Racism Strategy for the Thames Valley District School Board, which will outline the concrete and measurable actions we will take as a board to make Thames Valley more welcoming for Black students, families, and staff."
Beth Mai, the Chair of the Board of Trustees, says Black-identifying students, parents, caregivers, and community members will be able to provide their input while the strategy is being formed.
"Student and community voices are so important to the work that we do as a board. We are pleased to support meaningful engagement where we can listen and learn from students, families, and members from the Black community. We look forward to continuing this work to foster equity, diversity, and welcoming learning environments for all.”
Thames Valley is working closely with the director of Senomi Solutions Inc. - which is an equity, diversity, and inclusion consulting firm - and the strategy should be released in February of next year.
February is also known as Black History Month.
