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.

Page Content
| All courses offered in Family Studies (Social Sciences & Humanities) share a common objective - human beings and their world. |
|
| |
|
| Our objective: to enable students to gain insights into a wide range of factors that influence them and the world around them. We hope to create lifelong learners who will be able to take not only the practical skills and apply them to everyday life situations, but take the critical and creative thinking skills learned and begin to question and differentiate the world around them. |

|
| The Family Studies Department is committed to students and student learning by helping students appreciate their own identity, learn more about their cultural heritage, and gain knowledge and understanding of human development. We hope to empower students to become active, inquisitive and discerning citizens. |
