TDSB and You

Scent Free Schools

Exposure to perfumes and other scented products can be a trigger for serious health reactions in many people including those with asthma, allergies, migraines, or chemical sensitivities. Since Forest Valley welcomes so many TDSB staff and students each day, staff are reminded not to use or bring strongly scented products on site.

TDSB Employee Services

TDSB Employee Services

Prior to your official start date, Employee Services requires you to go through a mandatory in-person documentation session as well as ordering a Vulnerable Persons Police Records Check. They will email you information and instructions about how and when to order your police check and participate in the session. You MUST attend the Documentation session or you will not be allowed to start work or be on property.

We recommend you keep a copy of the Police Records Check along with all other completed forms related to your documentation.

NOTE: If you do not receive information about this process at least 6 weeks ahead of time, please contact the Forest Valley Site Supervisor.
