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 June 19, 2020
Graduating class of 2020, congratulations! I am sure this is not how you envisioned finishing this milestone year. This is an important moment in your lives, and it has been interrupted. While graduation ceremonies have been delayed to help reduce the spread of COVID-19, we can still celebrate your achievements and perseverance. This moment is still yours, and we want to make it special for you.
Tim Oxford of Arkells is a YRDSB alumni and the band was happy to help us send a very special musical message to all of our elementary and secondary school graduates, with some help from our school staff.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, our Chair of the Board and our student trustees also shared a message of congratulations to all of our graduates.
We are inviting our community to show their support for the graduating class of 2020 through the Grad Cap project by posting an image of a grad cap in their window or participating on social media. We have also put up banners on each of our secondary schools.
Graduates, you each have so much to offer the world, and I hope that you bring your fullest selves into whatever lies ahead of you. We cannot wait to see what you do next and we look forward to celebrating your graduation with you when we can reschedule ceremonies in the fall.
Sincerely,
Louise Sirisko
Director of Education
