We would like to send a warm welcome to all our international students coming to study at the Toronto District School Board for the February 2021 intake. For the safety of all students and staff, reporting for both elementary and secondary international students will be done online.

Reporting Procedure for Feb 2021 intake

TDSB Online Integrated Summer School and Orientation Program

TDSB offers this unique program to all new secondary international students joining the TDSB for the September intake. Students choose one course from the following list of exciting learning opportunities:

ESL (ESLAO/BO/CO/DO/EO)

This course extends students’ English language skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing for everyday and essential academic purposes, and provides students with the skills and strategies they need to make the transition to college and university preparation courses in English and other secondary school disciplines.

Exploring Family Studies: Grade 9 or 10 (HIF1O/2O)

This course explores how to meet basic needs, how to relate to others, how to manage resources, and how to become responsible members of society.

Designing Your Future: Grade 11 (GWL3O)

This course prepares students to make successful transitions to postsecondary destinations as they investigate specific postsecondary options based on their skills, interests, and personal characteristics.

This program will support students in making friends, becoming familiar with the TDSB system and building a stronger network of support. Students will also earn one credit upon successful completion of the course chosen.
