A Toronto District School Board pilot program that aims to help Black students graduate from high school successfully is being extended until at least June.
The program gives Black students across the TDSB access to a graduation coach, and many are already welcoming the news.
This is an amazing program. The coach is incredible. I hope the extend the program. Van (@Nessy123V) February 11, 2021
The pilot program started last March after a 2017 report by York University highlighted the racial inequalities within the Ontario school system when it comes to graduation rates.
