Notes on Translation The electronic translation service on the Toronto Catholic District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation's goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material. The Toronto Catholic District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make. The Toronto Catholic District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Including the election of Catholic School Trustees
Note before You Vote
Check your designation as a Catholic school supporter on your latest property tax assessment. If you are not designated as a Catholic school supporter you will not be eligible to vote for a Catholic School Trustee.
If you have submitted your Assessment form to the Board and it has not been reflected in your voter registration, please indicate at the polling station that you are Catholic. You will be required to sign a form in order to vote for the Toronto Catholic District School Board Trustee of your choice.
Existing Trustee Wards, including the local Catholic schools they represent, remain unchanged and the new boundaries DO NOT come into effect until December 1, 2018. These changes do not affect the current number of Toronto Catholic District School Board Trustees which will remain at 12. However, it impacts the distribution areas of Trustee Wards and the local schools they represent.
https://www.tcdsb.org/board/trusteesoftheboard/pages/new-trustee-ward-boundaries.aspx PLEASE NOTE: Although these changes do not come into effect until December 1, 2018, registered Catholic ratepayers will be voting for candidates based on these 12 new Trustee Wards for the Municipal Election on October 22, 2018.

Reminder for TCDSB Trustee Candidates
The Toronto Catholic District School Board thanks all Trustee candidates for their interest in representing Catholic parents in the upcoming elections on October 22nd, 2018.
Please be aware that no signage or campaign material can be posted or distributed on TCDSB property. Candidates are free to campaign on public property in the vicinity of schools.
TCDSB recognizes the importance of encouraging civic engagement in our young people, and some schools may decide to host an all candidates meeting for all Trustee candidates in their area so that students can engage in meaningful discussions about the issues that concern them. We encourage all Trustee candidates to take advantage of the opportunity should one arise, however, once again we would ask you to adhere to the restriction on distribution of campaign material in the classroom or on school property.
Catholic School Parent Councils may also invite Trustee candidates to attend all candidates meetings at their local school. We encourage all candidates to take advantage of this opportunity to meet Catholic school supporters in their Ward.
All TCDSB Trustee Candidates are invited and encouraged to participate in a meet and greet on October 1st at 6-9 PM the Catholic Education Centre, 80 Sheppard Avenue East, hosted by OAPCE-Toronto (Ontario Association of Parents in Catholic Education).
