Cummer Valley Middle School

Dear Parents/Guardians at Cummer Valley:

As you are aware, today we had a watermain break resulting in no water at the school. As a result of this emergency, classes were moved to remote learning for the day. Crews arrived quickly to undertake the required repairs, which were completed by 5:30pm.

As you know, the health and safety of our students is a top priority at Cummer Valley MS and would like to thank our TDSB Facility Services staff for responding to the situation so quickly and to our Cummer Valley staff for their care of our students and professionalism. The response and cooperation from everyone was exceptional.

The building has been inspected and is safe for school. We look forward to welcoming students back to their classrooms tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. As always, please contact me should you have any questions or concerns.

As shared in May, the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) will be asking all families to complete a Selection Form for In-Person or Virtual Learning for the 2021-22 school year.

Over the past several weeks, COVID-19 cases in Toronto have continued to decline, and we have seen significant progress with vaccines among adults and children aged 12-17. This is encouraging news, and we look forward to reconnecting all students to their home schools and welcoming them in person in September. 

While requests for Virtual Learning will be accommodated where necessary, we strongly encourage all students to select In-Person Learning. Based on our TDSB data about how students feel they learn best, and available data with respect to students returning to in-person learning, we feel confident that this is the best choice for students following what has been a challenging year.

Families can complete the Selection Form for In-Person or Virtual Learning online from Thursday, August 5 to Thursday, August 12. 

An email with a Selection Form link will be sent on Thursday, August 5. Families with two or more children will receive a separate email and link for each student. Families must complete the Selection Form using the link provided.

Those without an email address on file with the TDSB will receive a phone call to complete the Selection Form between August 10 and 12. Students will be placed in In-Person Learning if we do not receive a completed Selection Form by August 12.

Thank you for your cooperation as we work together to prepare for a smooth start to the school year.
