For our SAA week, we will be highlighting several partnerships that The York School community has with organizations that provide inclusive and accessible programming to disabled communities within the GTA - DramaWay, The Beverley School, Holland Bloorview, and Special Olympics - to name a few.

Please review the schedule below and note the week-long activities: 

• House Challenge Coin Drive for Holland Bloorview’s Family Support Fund - supporting families in need of medical equipment, access to recreational programs or respite care as well as life skills programs for disabled teens. 

• Drop toonies and loonies in your house jug for positive house points and bills in other house’s jugs for negative points.

• Packing a Smile Toy Drive - please consider donating new, small toys to be sent to children and teens receiving long-term care in GTA hospitals and rehabilitation centres. Drop off bins are outside the Student Life office in the cafeteria.

Finally, on Wednesday we will wear red shirts as a sign of solidarity with supporting AccessAbility in Canada with the caveat that Grade 10 students who are attending the Auschwitz exhibit at the ROM should wear their uniform.
