Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Q: How can I support my learner at home?
Parent involvement is vital to a student’s success. Parents can support learners by:
- Providing access to a computer with a stable Internet connection. See System Requirements for more information.
- Providing a specific place (quiet and free from interruptions) where your child can study and work on school assignments.
- Spending time with your child to help him/ her set goals and meet deadlines.
- Supervising schoolwork and monitoring progress.
- Giving extra help when needed.
- Providing support, praise and motivation.
- Communicating with the teacher as appropriate.
- Recognizing that technology problems will occasionally arise and working with your child and the school to resolve them.
Parents who wish to receive a routine update on the progress of their child should contact the teacher directly. Please note an update will only be given to parents of students under 18 years of age, OR where consent has been given from over 18 students.
