Hello Students, Parents and Caregivers!

Welcome to West Hill C.I. We are so excited to meet you! On Monday December 5, 2022 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm, we have planned an exciting evening for you to become familiar with West Hill, meet new people and have lots of fun! We hope to see you there.

Henna Deonarine (grade 9) is West Hill's first student to be published in O.K. K.O. O.K., a magazine published by the TDSB's Urban Indigenous Education Centre. Her artwork entitled, "School Life," was inspired by Inuk artist, Annie Pootoogook which depicts feelings of isolation the pandemic had brought upon her generation. O.K. K.O. O.K., features student artwork and writing from across the board that is authentic and inspires responsible relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities. Our school is proud of Henna being the first West Hill student to be a part of an important and impactful publication!

On March 30, TDSB emailed parents/caregivers about the Ontario Ministry of Education's new graduation requirement for secondary students to complete two e-Learning credits as part of the 30 credits required for the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). It applies only to students who entered Grade 9 on or after September 1, 2020 (now in Grade 9 or 10). 

The email also indicated that students may withdraw from the new online e-Learning requirement. A parent/caregiver or student (18 years of age or older) may withdraw by completing and submitting the Opt-out/Withdrawal form. No explanation or reason is needed to opt out/withdraw. If you already completed the form, no further action is required. If you haven't filled out the form and wish to opt out, the form is attached here and can be sent back to the school at westhill.ci@tdsb.on.ca or submitted to the Guidance Office. 

Please visit the online learning graduation requirement web page for more information. If you have questions, please contact the Guidance Office.
