The English Montreal School Board is marking Black History Month with programming across the network. On Thursday, February 6 the EMSB held its formal kickoff at Parkdale Elementary School in St. Laurent in dedication to the late Dr. Horace I. Goddard, a former school teacher, principal and head office administrator and a leader in the Black community.

The theme of this year's Education Professionals' Week, November 18 to 22, is “Shining a Light on our Educational Universe”. Every professional plays an essential role in school success.  Let's recognize the invaluable work of public education professionals and say "thank you!"
