Colleen Russell-Rawlins emphasized that with sufficient investments, the Toronto District School Board could recover from the pandemic, evolving into a world-class education system providing ample support across various areas.
She illustrated her vision by proposing regeneration projects every five to seven years for schools, imagining the inclusion of child and youth workers, counselors, and a dedicated innovation center for pioneering educational strategies.
Despite her aspirations for public education, she confronted the trustees with the daunting reality of managing a budget amidst a persistent structural deficit, exacerbated by an inadequate funding formula.
Russell-Rawlins stressed the importance of envisioning a better future for students and families, articulating a longing for a system that not only meets educational needs but also inspires innovation and support.
