This is one day that I am glad that I no longer teach. Not sure how I would deal with a trip to the Sky dome along with all the rest of the teaching staff for the whole Toronto school board. The new Director of Education, he has been in the position for a year now arranged this event at the end of last school year. Originally, it was going to last all day- can you imagine! They are supposed to hand out material to all the teachers. It could not be decided if it would be on CD's or in print form, either way it is very costly and for what reason?
This event is not free to a school board that is struggling with costs. How can he justify this feel good event that is going to cost a great deal and will really not reach most of the staff. The teachers are going to arrive feeling very angry at having to come to this event that does not have enough parking for most of them. Teacher come from many locations and some of them are going to have a challenging time returning to school and getting home.
I am going to check the media to see how they view this event. Will get back to you soon.
