Fostering Brilliance

A message from principal Dr. Leanne Foster

UTS is a community that is passionate about learning, not just for our students but for everyone. Coming next month, we are so pleased to offer you an opportunity to learn from visionary U.S.-based educator and author Dr. Paul Gorski.

The Question of Class: A Presentation with Dr. Paul Gorski
Thursday, October 10, 2024
6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
University of Toronto Schools

The author, co-author or editor of 12 books including his most recent, Fix Injustice, Not Kids and Other Principles for Transformative Equity Leadership, Dr. Gorski is an inspiring speaker with important messages for our community. 

Founder of the Equity Literacy Institute, he has worked with educators  in 48 states and 12 countries. Dr. Gorski brings 25 years of experience helping educators, nonprofit workers, and others in building deep and meaningful equity practices that put the student at the centre, which is so important to our school as we begin to implement work on our new Strategic Plan.  

This event is open to the public and I am making a special invitation to all our families and guardians to join us in exploring how to create real impact and transform our school into a place where all students thrive. I am very excited about this event, and expect it will be an inspiring evening for everyone. 

 Looking forward to seeing you there.

All books listed are books needed for the 2024-2025 school year. Only courses which have textbooks are listed. If you do not see a course on the website, it is because the course does not have a textbook.
