Pride 2026 Resources and Events

Yesterday, I had the privilege of joining a group of ETFO Thames Valley members at Queen's Park to meet with Terence Kernaghan, MPP for London North Centre, and discuss the ongoing impact of chronic underfunding on Ontario's publicly funded elementary schools.

As we move toward the end of another busy school year, we want to sincerely thank members for the tremendous care, professionalism, and dedication you continue to show each and every day in support of students, families, and colleagues. We recognize the significant work taking place in schools at this time of year, and this memo is intended to provide members with reminders regarding the upcoming Report Card Writing Day, as well as Collective Agreement language related to classroom packing and unpacking.

We are excited to launch our Red4Ed Campaign, running from April through June. This campaign is about bringing members together in a visible and meaningful way to show support for public education and the incredible work you do every day. Wearing red is a simple act, but when we do it collectively, it sends a powerful message of solidarity and pride in the incredible work we do together.
