As many of you know, the TDSB funding for school programming and supplies is very limited. As such, every year Toronto schools face chronic funding shortages and repair backlogs. Throughout the school year, the IRC and Parent Council organize a variety of fundraising initiatives to help us raise additional money for the school to help offset these shortfalls.
We hope that you and your family will participate and give generously throughout the year, as every penny we raise goes back into enriching our school programs and purchasing badly needed classroom equipment and supplies. This in turn makes for a richer, more educational, and more memorable school experience for all our children. We will be updating information on all past and upcoming fundraisers and the money we raise, here on the IRC blog. IRC Parent Council is also in the process of setting a new and exciting fundraising goal for our Technology Fund and you will soon be hearing more about this initiative - stay tuned!
In the meantime, here is a breakdown of allocated funds for the 2014-2015 school year, as voted on by the Parent Council at last year's parent council meeting in June 2014:
