The 网曝门 recognizes that an equitable, inclusive education system will always be fundamental to achieving its mission and evolving core priorities. The Board recognizes that any form of overt or covert racism and discrimination is incompatible with Catholic values and is in violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code.

Cultivating an authentically safe and inclusive space also requires a recognition of the role that racism, which is historically and systemically embedded, has in working against these goals and outcomes. Such spaces demand an understanding of how anti-Black racism has thrived as a particularly aggressive form of racism that impacts Black learners, Black professionals, and Black communities.

The Board is committed to listening to its diverse communities and addressing disparities to cultivate a learning community that promotes human rights, equity, anti-racism, and inclusion. In collaboration with the Board, the Dismantling Anti-Black Racism Advisory Committee will work to effectively address and dismantle the disadvantages and discrimination experienced by Black students, staff, and families.
