The Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB) is working to gain a better understanding of the diverse backgrounds of students and families across the district. To provide information that will help achieve this goal, TVDSB has launched the Every Student Belongs Survey.
The survey is guided by Ontario’s Equity Action Plan, which asks school boards to collect information about students and staff in the following areas:
· Race
· Ethnicity
· Religion
· Disability
· Gender Identity
· Socio-Economic Status
· Exceptionalities
· Immigration Status
· Language First Spoken
Beginning on March 11th, parents and caregivers of students in Kindergarten to Grade 6 will be invited to complete the survey on behalf of their children. Families will be receiving a letter with more detailed information and an email with a link to the survey.
