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.

Wellness
The UHS Wellness initiative is dedicated to improving the health and
wellbeing of the student body. We focus on promoting mental, sexual, physical,
and nutritional health through creative and informative ways. Our
mission is to make a positive impact on our students by ensuring that
students feel safe and supported through the school community.
Over the past 4 years, we've launched multiple initiatives and events
throughout the school including dog therapy days, a Youth Speak conference,
compliment grams where we've gotten 800+ submissions, how to deal with stress,
mental health boards where we share our worries and ways to help each other,
online initiatives; and much more! One of our main events every year is Wellness
May where we spend a month dedicating to spreading awareness and helping the
student body with mental, physical, nutritional and sexual health!
