Reply To the best of my knowledge Scarlett Heights is a semester school along with Silverthorn Thistletown and North Albion Weston is not really in the region The article implies that students from as far as Rexdale come to Kipling because of its semestered nature However such students would have several closer alternatives Something else must be attracting such students The daily announcements used to be presented on Switch On on a daily basis Currently Switch On is produced only on Thursdays The rest of the week the daily announcements are read by a student over the P A system The Switch On program may return to a daily production next year Varsity Outdoor cricket is the only official TDSB version of the sport Indoor cricket is unique to the schools of the former boards of Etobicoke and York Since it is not played in all districts it is not officially sanctioned by the board However you are correct that the local indoor league is divided into JR and SR divisions I see no problem in stating that a significant number of the school s students are of Somalian Origin and that the school has made strong effort to work with and connect with the Somalian community However most of the Somalian students now in the school were born in Canada Current refugees are more likely to be from Afghanistan The demographic of schools like Kipling quickly changes therefore it is difficult to keep specific statements like 200 Somalian refugees current Why not leave the article more general to better reflect the mosaic of cultures represented within the school The YOUCAN program is not an in house program It is run by a private paid organization Originally the program was delivered to small groups of students who showed interest and leadership potential Roger Dale introduced the program first to small groups then to all grades nines then eventually participation became mandatory for all registered students Kipling was the first school to require full participation within this program With the apparent impending requirement for all schools to offer Character Education YOUCAN may be positioning itself to become a provider for other TDSB schools Perhaps this is why a link was suggested between the introduction of YOUCAN and the drop in the Kipling suspension rate However the prime reason for the drop in suspension rate is that Roger Dale does not believe in the value of suspensions and is a proponent of Progressive Discipline and Restorative Justice as alternatives and prerequisites to suspension The suspension rate for Kipling and its neighbouring academic schools for 2006 2007 Kipling 2 2 Martingrove 2 5 Richview 2 8 Scarlett Heights 9 7
