As at this writing, the decision to close the Grade 7 entry point to the TDSB Extended French program (EF) has not been made yet. However, here is a letter from Nadine Segal, System Superintendent, regarding how the potential changes would impact our school.
As discussed at the School council meeting, the TDSB is considering a proposal to get rid of the Grade 7 entry point for Extended French, leaving Grade 4 as the latest point a student can choose Extended French. Right now, the Hawthorne kids who want to go on in Extended French go to Winona, which is a Grade 7 entry point school. Please consider writing your trustee to object to this change.
