Take Our Kids to Work Day (TOKTW) has a long history of being a successful opportunity for students to gain real world experience in the workplace. TOKTW also connects parents/caregivers and their grade 9 students in a day full of fun and career exploration.
This year, the WRDSB is supporting TOKTW in partnership with a new sponsor, Students Commission of Canada (SCC). As part of the transition of this initiative to the SCC, the resources at the Learning Partnership website have been updated. Please note that although the resources mention virtual events, at this time there are no virtual events planned for November 2, 2022. The SCC has indicated that in the near future there may be additional information regarding their involvement, which may or may not include virtual events.

Blank permission forms are also available in the guidance office.
