Teachers grow up
Having been appalled at the graffiti, aka witless doodling, at the school where my wife works it is gratifying to report that the tardy TDSB have taken action. All teaching staff at the school are required to have two college degrees, for which they are rewarded with a building adorned with daily reminders of their diminishing status. Complaints can sometimes work it seems.
The impression given is of an unsafe neighbourhood, which depresses local property prices and contributes to a spiral of decline. Nobody said it was easy stamping this out but at least they have made a start at reclaiming their school.
