History of the Toronto Catholic District School 

Invitation for Contributions of Materials 

Did you work for the Toronto Catholic District School Board or the Metropolitan Separate School Board?

Did you attend a Catholic school in the City of Toronto?

You are invited to consider helping to make history. 

The Toronto Catholic District School Board has approved the writing of a complete history of Catholic education in the City of Toronto. This history will give recognition to all those who have contributed to the development of the strong publicly funded Catholic school system that exists today. 

The author of the history will be Dr. Robert T. Dixon, who is a recognized author and legal consultant on Catholic schools in the province of Ontario. An advisory group will work with Dr. Dixon, with the goal of completing the history sometime during the 2005 calendar year. 

To provide authentic information, the author and the advisory group are inviting individuals who may possess records, photographs and other relevant materials (particularly from the early days of Toronto’s Catholic schools) to submit such items for consideration and information. 

Items should have as much information as possible on the people, schools or events depicted. Items will be returned provided the sender includes a return address with the submission. 

Submissions should be sent to:
Dr. Robert T. Dixon
