UTS Annual Report 2021-2022

OUR TRIUMPHANT RETURN

UTS students love learning, take initiative and innovate as socially responsible global citizens.

The renewed UTS is our foundation for the future

OUR TRIUMPHANT RETURN

At long last, we are home. This year marked a triumphant return for UTS to our historic location made new on the University of Toronto campus, with 120,000 square feet of inspiring space where students will learn and grow.

More than three years had passed since our community gathered on a December day to break ground on our new home. Our temporary school location at 30 Humbert served us well, but it was time to say goodbye.

While not fully finished, our new home was ready for occupancy. Over March Break, UTS Facilities and Information Technology teams worked tirelessly to make this monumental move, ensuring the school was ready for students and staff on April 5.

The first few days were like a dream come true, with everyone in awe of their new surroundings. Students gathered and socialized while eating lunch on the Fleck Atrium stairs. Comfortable modular furnishings in bright red, blue and yellow provided quiet places for reflection and study. The Lang Innovation Lab hummed with ideas, prototypes and design thinking.

The experiments began in the science labs, the first notes rang out from the music rooms and so much more.

RENEWING OUR CONNECTIONS

The move back to Bloor Street opened the door to a deeper sense of connection, as we shifted away from online school and embraced the joy of having classes inperson together, in our stunning new home. Vaccine policies, mask requirements in the classroom and our robust ventilation system helped keep COVID-19 infection rates low among students and staff.

Returning to our historic home also provided the proximity vital to strengthening UTS partnerships with our neighbours on the

U of T Campus: the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, the Rotman School of Management, the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy and its Global Ideas Institute, and many others.

EMBEDDING EQUITY THROUGHOUT UTS

Most of all, the new school gave us a strong foundation for our larger goal of creating a culture of greater inclusion at UTS. We were pleased to welcome Dr. Kimberley Tavares, as coordinating vice principal, anti-racism, equity, inclusion, access and innovation programs to guide us on our ongoing journey. While her first day was July 1, 2022, she led professional development sessions for staff on equity in June, and spent time getting to know our school to determine priorities for our Implementation Plan on

Anti-racism, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. Her work builds on recommendations made by Dr. Avis Glaze OOnt in her 2022 report: Anti-racism, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion: Our Shared Responsibility.

Under Kim’s dynamic leadership, equity shifted from a cornerstone of our strategic plan to a school-wide mindset, interwoven into all that we do.

It is our fervent hope that this work becomes the heart of our new home, growing into meaningful change at every level of our school, in our thoughts, hopes and actions, and in how we care for each other.

We can create a greater culture of inclusion at UTS, and we will do it together in our new home, for the good of our students of today, and tomorrow.

MESSAGE from theUTS FOUNDATION PRESIDENT

Fiscal 2022 was a transition year for the UTS Foundation as the construction of the new building continued at a rapid pace. The value of the Foundation’s assets at June 30, 2022 was $46,827,245, up from $46,187,061 at June 30, 2021. During the year, the Foundation transferred an additional $3,520,341 from the Building Fund to the school to fund ongoing construction costs, as well as $1,426,845 (an increase of one per cent from the prior year) for bursaries, scholarships and awards. This was partially offset by $4,744,482 in donations and bequests collected during the year.

At June 30, 2022, $4,700,440 (10 per cent) of the Foundation’s assets were held in cash and short-term assets, which more than covered the remaining amount in the Building Fund and the $30,000,000 debenture committed by the Foundation to the school. As of June 30, 2022, the school has drawn down $29,000,000 on the debenture as construction on the new building continued to progress. The remainder of the Foundation’s assets are

invested primarily in Canadian, U.S. and global equities.

The Foundation has worked carefully over the last several years to manage our portfolio to meet the cash funding needs of the new building, while also earning meaningful investment returns and positioning the Foundation to continue to fund bursaries, scholarships and awards in the future as we have done in the past. With a prudent investment approach and the incredible support from the UTS community for the Building the Future Campaign, we have been able to navigate these waters and believe we are wellpositioned for the future.

Vanessa Grant ’80 President, UTS Foundation.

BUILDING PROJECT UPDATE

Our realized donations increased in the 2021-22 fiscal year by $4 million, through fundraising efforts and pledged donations to the Building Fund. The projected hard costs increased due to continued COVID-related labour disruptions and other increased project management costs.

BUILDING PROJECT FINANCIAL SUMMARY

THE YEAR WE CAME HOME

UTS entered our third pandemic school year at the temporary 30 Humbert Street school location with renewed optimism: students and staff were exhilarated to finally be back to in-person school (with hybrid options) after learning online since April, and later in the school year we would be returning home to our new school building. COVID-19 vaccinations were available and we were now well-versed with pandemic measures such as physical distancing, cohort groups, the trimester system and the environmental adaptations in place to keep everyone safe.

In fall, students and staff made the most of in-person learning, and staff seized opportunities to take the learning outside. Some team sports resumed at UTS such as field hockey, Ultimate, and basketball and volleyball exhibition games. In December, the Senior Winds Ensemble was finally able to play together in person for the first time in 22 months, spaced out around the school gym at 30 Humbert, wearing instrument masks with a hole for playing, as well as bell covers to prevent air escaping the instruments. Even the Holiday Breakfast was back, though it took place outside, and our traditional Twelve Days of Christmas performance by S6 (grade 12) students resumed, spaced out in the gym.

However, in December the Omicron variant rapidly took hold in our province, and as the holidays began, the provincial government instituted restrictions, stipulating online learning in January. When restrictions began to ease later that month, UTS returned to inperson learning with hybrid options.

Experiential education for students resumed after a two-year hiatus with day and overnight trips in late February and March.

As spring drew nearer, pandemic restrictions began to lift, and even better, our new school was nearly ready. We received the green light to return home in April, and after March Break, students and staff transitioned to online school while the final preparations took place. On April 5, we returned home to a stunning new school, and with pandemic physical distancing restrictions easing, we were finally able to relax a little more and enjoy each other’s company.

Students quickly made the new building a home, eagerly embracing all of the events and activities that make UTS so special. For the first time in three years, major events hosted by UTS such as Southern Ontario Model United Nations Assembly and the Girls in Tech Conference took place partially in person. In-person student exchange programs also resumed, as UTS welcomed students from Denmark. To wrap up the year, students took part in overnight experiential education, forging deeper relationships and trying new activities.

At the end of the year, our first class graduated from our renewed school, elated they had been able to enjoy these last three months together in our inspiring new home.

Our renewed school building serves as a foundation for the future of UTS.

What kind of future do we want to create?

Anti-racism, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at UTS

OUR SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

UTS is committed to developing social responsibility and global citizenship among our students, but we have heard that not all our students and alumni experience a sense of belonging during their time here. We need to do better for them.

It is our responsibility to all past, current and future students to create a school where students feel safe to be who they are and where they feel they belong, wholly and completely.

Together, we are learning the way forward, changing in the moment. Every time students and staff speak up against racism and discrimination, we move towards to a deeper understanding of each other. These moments of kindness and empathy bring us closer together as a community.

We built our new school on the generosity of our alumni and school community. Now, we choose the direction for the future. Equity is not optional. It is not negotiable. We are vested with a deep determination to foster an even greater culture of inclusion at UTS. We have a vision, and a plan, and the will of our community behind us. We can do better, and we will, together.

THE NEW URGENCY FOR EQUITY

Our ongoing work on equity took on a new urgency during the pandemic, spurred by

larger societal movements such as Black Lives Matter, Anti-Asian Hate and Me Too and driven by concerns of our students and alumni. Candid community conversations revealed that despite our efforts, students and staff are still experiencing incidents of racism and discrimination at our school. Anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion became a driving force behind UTS as the foremost strategic initiative for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years. The equity mandate at UTS strategically aligns with our Affiliation Agreement with the University of Toronto, upholding the University’s commitment to diversity and a culture of inclusive excellence.

A measure of equity

What does UTS do well in terms of equity? What can we do to take our school to the next level?

In May 2021, Principal Rosemary Evans engaged international education leader and renowned equity expert, Dr. Avis Glaze OOnt, to conduct an audit of UTS on anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion. Dr. Glaze served as Ontario’s founding CEO of the

Literacy and Numeracy Secretariat, as well as Ontario’s education commissioner. She was responsible for developing the Equity and Inclusive Education in Ontario Schools strategy and has worked to address other human rights issues.

From May to November 2021, Dr. Glaze consulted with and interviewed a wide cross-section of our community – meeting with over 120 parents, alumni, students, staff and Board members who openly shared their perspectives and experiences.

Recommendations for change

The results are summarized in Dr. Glaze’s January 2022 report, entitled Antiracism, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion: Our Shared Responsibility, which outlined 59 recommendations for UTS to address racism and drive positive change. Many were practical steps aimed at improving diversity and fostering a sense of inclusion and meaningful belonging for students and staff from underrepresented groups. The recommendations were given to UTS not as a plan but as a guide to build upon.

Embed equity into senior leadership

One of the foremost recommendations called for UTS to establish internal equity leadership immediately by incorporating a

new vice principal role to guide our process. As of July 2022, Dr. Kimberley Tavares was appointed to the position of coordinating vice principal, anti-racism, equity, inclusion, access and innovation programs. Kim brought a wealth of expertise and a drive for change from her work at the Education Equity Secretariat in the Ministry of Education, where she was seconded from the York Region School Board administration to work in a team alongside the assistant deputy minister.

Anti-racism first

One of the things that drew Kim to UTS was that the school explicitly articulates its commitment to anti-racism. “Many places talk about equity, diversity and inclusion,” says Kim. “Nobody talks about anti-racism first because that requires an acknowledgment of historic and systemic wrongs that need to be righted. The fact that anti-racism appears first on the list at UTS anchored it in a commitment larger than just wanting to feel good.”

Equity as a mindset

UTS was ready to give the time, space and opportunity to do the work. Staff and students were willing and engaged. The conditions were set to create inclusive spaces where everyone feels they have the genuine right to be there.

Dr. Kimberley Tavares speaks with UTS staff during a professional development session focused on anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion.

While her first day of work was officially July 4, 2022, Kim started early, presenting Equity by Design: Engaging in Anti-racism, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at June professional development sessions for staff, as well as consulting with teachers.

potential and current students and their families who are Black, Indigenous or members of other underrepresented groups.

“There’s been a subtle culture shift in the school,” says Leyat. “People are a lot more comfortable with topics of inequality and inequity, and more sensitive to these issues. And teachers are doing a lot to incorporate anti-racism and more Black voices into their curriculum.”

Cici, who joined UTS in 2021, says her experience already seems different to what she heard from her sister Daeja ’21. “I haven’t had any experience that made me feel like an outsider. I haven’t repeatedly had to have talks with people. Change is coming. It’s not anywhere near done, but it’s happening.”

With Kim on board and the communitydriven recommendations from Dr. Avis Glaze, UTS is ready, willing and committed to do the work to transform our school towards a culture with greater equity and inclusion.

A SUBTLE CULTURAL SHIFT

As executives on the UTS Black Equity Committee for the 2021-22 school year, S5 (grade 11) Leyat and M3 (grade 9) Cici work towards two broad goals: improving the UTS experience for Black students and increasing their number. “The running joke was there could only be two Black students at UTS. When one graduated, another could come,” says Leyat. “Now we are way past two with about 10 Black students.”

In fall 2021, Leyat and Cici, along with several Black UTS alumni, welcomed prospective Black students at an event with the UTS Community of Support, established to provide connections for

ENHANCING EQUITY IN THE CLASSROOM

Efforts to enhance anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion in the classroom continued to evolve in 2021-22, in what we teach and how we teach it. The curriculum highlighted more historically underrepresented voices and showcased the innovations and achievements of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour (BIPOC) and LGBTQ2SI+ people in various disciplines. The how of teaching evolved as well, opening the door to a greater diversity of perspectives and culturally inclusive ways of knowing.

Systemic change in the science classroom

Dr. Marion Andrew is one of many UTS teachers taking a systemic approach to enhance anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion for their students.

“UTS, for me, is the possibility of what excellence – not only in academics which UTS is renowned for – but what excellence in inclusion and diversity can really look like.”

- Dr. Kimberley Tavares

Give representation to the underrepresented

Marion works to increase representation in the science classroom, in everything from the history of science down to the clip art she uses. “If you search scientists in online clip art, most of the representations are white people,” she says. To bring in the balance, she seeks out diverse representations of BIPOC and LGBTQ2SI+ people, and women.

The situation is similar for the history of science. Curriculum mandates for the historical background of scientific discoveries tend to be eurocentric and male-dominated. “Many of the people you associate with science history are male and white,” says Marion. “The problem with this is when students close their eyes at the end of the day and imagine what a scientist looks like, they have a very skewed perspective.”

For her F2 (grade 8) science students’ grade 9 lesson on the history of astronomy (UTS Science has an accelerated curriculum), Marion incorporates a practice from her colleague, Marisca Vanderkamp, to

precede the traditional study of Greek philosophers and Scientific Revolution leaders such as Galileo and Newton with the broader contributions of Mesopotamia, India, China, Egypt, the Middle East and Mesoamerica. “Why do we know the term Galileo but we don't know about a lot of these incredible astronomers and mathematicians?” Marion asks. Inspired by Science Department Coordinator Isabella Liu, the lesson was followed by studying the work of more recent BIPOC astronomers and scientists such as NASA trailblazers Mary Jackson and Katherine Johnson; Neil deGrasse Tyson, the renowned astrophysicist, author and science educator; and Dr. Harvey Washington Banks, the first Black American to earn a doctorate in astronomy.

In F2 lessons on ecosystem dynamics, Marion discusses examples of sustainable farming practices, such as Black scientistinventor George Washington Carver’s proposal for crop rotation, in which he describes how peanuts could be used to restore nitrogen to nutrient-depleted cotton fields. Her F2 classes also study the Three Sisters farming method, used by Indigenous nations in the Great Lakes area

to grow complementary crops of corn, beans and squash together. Corn provides a trellis structure for the beans, which bring nutrients back into the soil, while the squash acts as a cover crop to keep moisture in the soil and prevent weeds.

Understand and address inequities

Secondly, Marion strives to address and understand inequities in science and science education. She teaches her M3 (grade 9) students about past injustices ‒ such as the cancer cells still used in medical research today that were taken from young Black mother Henrietta Lacks in 1951 without her knowledge or consent (in the UTS accelerated science curriculum, M3 students take grade 10 science). For the 2021-22 school year, she incorporated equity into the M3 climate change research project, calling on students to analyze whether current global initiatives, typically led by countries less likely to face the worst impacts of climate change, will have an impact at local levels in countries where intervention is most needed.

Addressing inequities comes not just from what is taught, but how. An S6 (grade 12) biology unit on bioethics, debates hard questions such as “Should people or embryos be tested for genetic diseases they have not developed yet and then should CRISPR technology be used to modify these genes?” with clear expectations on how to conduct respectful conversations, applied throughout.

Fight bias in science by fighting bias using science

This means studying how we can use science to help fight bias, using examples such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Gender Shades project, which found commercial artificial intelligence systems significantly mis-gender darker-

skinned people and women, and Mind the Gap: Black and Brown skin, a website created by Dr. Malone Mukwende in London, U.K. which shows how clinical signs manifest on Black and brown skin in response to the COVID-19 rash being described universally as pink, when it appears brown on darker skin.

These efforts coalesce into a kind of momentum, as Marion's colleagues in Science and other departments make similar efforts. This is only a small part of the evolution under way as we strive to foster a true sense of belonging for everyone at UTS.

Inclusion in Languages

At UTS, the study of the French, German Spanish and Latin languages intertwines with the study of global cultures, aiming to instill broad perspectives and global empathy in our students. Students learn both the language and the context, going beyond novels to what's going on in countries where the language is spoken. For example, Languages Department Coordinator Jennifer Kelly’s S5 (grade 11) special French class has students immerse themselves in the study of a Francophone country as though they live there, reading the news about everything from global challenges faced by the country to science, technology, the arts, and cultural identities and practices. Students apply their insider knowledge to prepare and deliver a cultural briefing for a new diplomat to the country.

In Brigitte Amiot’s S6 (grade 12) French classes, they explore the theme of what it’s like to be a stranger in your own country. Classical works such as The Stranger by Camus are complimented by non-traditional works on similar themes, such as Ying Chen’s The Chinese Letters, an epistolary novel about three Chinese university students that bridges Shanghai, Montreal and culture

shock, and Marjane Satrapi's animated film Persepolis, based on her graphic novel about coming of age during the Iranian Revolution.

Negar Shayan's M4 (grade 10) special French class explores Quebec’s relationship with its Indigenous communities and the influence of Indigenous languages and cultures by studying articles, interviews, videos and the documentary film Québékoisie

Similar learning takes place in other language classes such as Spanish, where students delve into analyzing social justice and current issues in the countries where Spanish is spoken.

Nicola Townend’s M4 (grade 10) German class extends beyond Grimm's fairy tales to storytelling cultures around the world including Indigenous traditions, with students writing original fairy tales in German to debunk stereotypes for a 21st century audience. History of inequities is woven in –an example is an S6 (grade 12) lesson about the LGBTQ2SI+ community in 1920s Berlin where the Nazi regime targeted gay men.

External curriculum consultants bring in new ideas. In January, the Languages Department had Jimmy Steele ’99, past president of the Ontario Modern Language Teachers’ Association, speak about how to recognize LGBTQ2SI+ youth and help them see themselves reflected in the language curriculum. Language teachers also work with UTS Director of Library Services Susie Choi to broaden BIPOC representation in the foreign-language collection.

For 2022-23, UTS is expanding its language curriculum to include Mandarin, which was offered as a weekend program in 2021-22.

BEYOND THE CLASSROOM

The transformation to Black Futures Month

Black History Month took on a new incarnation at UTS as Black Futures Month in February 2022, symbolizing a forward-looking perspective on the traditional celebration of Black culture and achievements. With two assemblies, dynamic events and workshops like a performance of Things My Fore-Sisters

Saw by playwright-activist Leslie McCurdy, a spoken word workshop with poet Desiree McKenzie, a student art exhibition and more, it was a month of learning about and celebrating Black culture and achievement. The closing assembly included a question and answer session hosted by UTS Black Equity Committee Executive S5 (grade 11) Leyat and M3 (grade 9) Cici, with Dr. Carl James, author of Colour Matters, and UTSAA Director Dr. Jessica Ware ’95, Associate Curator of Invertebrate Zoology at the American Museum of Natural History.

First Asian Heritage Month Assembly

Advancing Equity for Asians hosted the first dedicated assembly for Asian Heritage Month in May. The theme of the month was "Through the Kaleidoscope: Asia" using the kaleidoscope to symbolize how Asia is a dynamic and energetic place, composed of many cultures, languages, geographies, histories and identities.

Together we grow: the conversation continues

The UTS community continued to engage in conversations around topical equity issues.

A virtual panel hosted by UTS Parents’ Association for the International Day of Pink discussed how parents can support their children who identify as LGBTQ2SI+ or who are allies of this community. Panelists included University of Toronto philosophy professor Donald Ainslie ’84, UTSAA Director Dr. Jessica Ware ’95, and others, as well as UTS Day of Pink Committee members Cameron Miranda-Radbord ’21 and Catherine Wachter, UTS teacher,

guidance counsellor and founder of Pink Day at our school. Another panel was hosted by students.

UTS Advancing Equity for Asians hosted the Asian Mental Health Panel in May 2022 –Asian Heritage Month – with alumni Joanna Han ’21 and Rachel Ma ’19 discussing factors that contribute to or alleviate mental health issues facing Asian students. They candidly shared how they navigated uncertainty and university applications with UTS students and staff.

The new UTS Director of Athletics, Michael Knox, hosted a series of equityminded Blues Talks in the spring, some of which became podcasts. One guest was mental performance coach and track athlete Brittney Gibbs, MSc, who works with Canadian organizations that are committed to making a difference in sport for female and/or BIPOC individuals through her sport psychology consulting agency in Toronto, The Mind Game. Leaders of the BIPOC Varsity Association from the University of Toronto Varsity Blues also presented on their organization, what racism and microaggressions look like, and how non-BIPOC individuals can show allyship.

TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION AT UTS

In 2015, UTS committed to honour the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, particularly Actions 62 to 65 that focus on education.

“In the last five years, there’s been a huge shift,” says S5 (grade 11) Shreya, a student leader on the UTS Indigenous Solidarity Committee. When she was an F1 (grade 7) student, she says Orange Shirt Day involved wearing an orange shirt for a group photo. In fall 2021, Orange Shirt Day became the inaugural National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada and UTS dedicated an entire assembly to Truth and Reconciliation with a residential school Survivor sharing testimony, as well as lunchtime events, a documentary screening, discussion circles and class activities.

“We’ve done so much more to make this day centered around Truth and Reconciliation. That’s the clearest evidence for me that we are going somewhere good with this.”

Looking forward, Shreya says, “The new spaces offer us an opportunity to do more, with additional environments where the work can take place.” She is hoping to

establish an Indigenous space at the new school, but: “the broad goal for me is for every student to leave the school with a sense of care and a cultural competency around Indigenous peoples. So much of what Reconciliation entails is people who are able to build relationships and have those meaningful, thoughtful conversations. Canada has done this injustice and Indigenous communities are advocating for their rights, and we’re supporting them in that process. Even if students aren’t going to be activists, they care enough to recognize these are important issues and will do their part to help.”

Truth and Reconciliation in Health and Physical Education

Reconciliation is core to the everyday teaching practice of UTS Director of Athletics Michael Knox. “It's important for our students to understand that there are kids their age in Canada who are really having a difficult time and so much of this is because of the barriers that exist because they're Indigenous and live in Indigenous communities,” says Michael.

In F1 (grade 7) class, he introduced students to the Indigenous game, Screaming Eagle,

As a leader on the Indigenous Solidarity Committee at UTS, S5 (grade 11) Shreya hopes every student leaves with a cultural competency around Indigenous peoples.

where students line up and then run while screaming on a single breath. Not only is it a lot of fun and a great stress reliever, the game also tests cardio-respiratory endurance. “Part of that is understanding the context,” he says, “because there is always a purpose to Indigenous games. Children were supposed to play but through play they would develop skills. Screaming Eagle is a test of strength: how strong, loud and fast you can be, all important skills.”

Michael often starts class with a discussion or sharing of Indigenous news, and in health class explores disparities facing Indigenous communities such as the number of First Nations still living without drinkable water. He also invited a former colleague to his classes to share her story as a recovering addict and how her cultural practices are helping her recovery.

When students are working out, he plays Indigenous music – his current favourite is The Halluci Nation. Also in health class, students watched The Grizzlies, a film written by UTS alum Graham Yost ’76 that explores issues facing Inuit youth in the North, such as food insecurity and mental and physical health.

“The practice of empathy and understanding the cultural aspects is one of the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, and should be ingrained in all aspects of everyday life from education, justice and the legal system, healthcare, everything,” says Michael.

NEW ATHLETICS DIRECTOR

MICHAEL KNOX

Michael Knox brings expertise working with underrepresented communities, and champions the importance of Truth and Reconciliation because he lived it. For 10 years, he taught health and physical education at Helen Betty Osborne School in the Indigenous community of Norway House, Manitoba, where he held the position of athletics director.

“Canada’s relationship with its Indigenous peoples is at a crossroads and all citizens of this country play a role in improving that relationship,” he says. “Reconciliation is a responsibility of all Canadians, and this is something I am passionate about and will incorporate into my teaching, and in my role within UTS Athletics.”

Originally from Toronto, Michael attended Davis and Elkins College in West Virginia, on athletics and academic scholarships to earn his bachelor of science in physical education and went on to earn a master of science in athletic coaching education from West Virginia University, as well as his CIAAA National Athletic Directors Certification.

For his work in Manitoba, Michael earned various awards, including the Norman East Regional Recognition Award from the Physical and Health Educators of Manitoba.

Truth and Reconciliation Year-Long Learning Theme

F1 (grade 7) students embark upon their UTS experience with a Year-Long Learning Theme on Truth and Reconciliation, grounding their time here in issues faced by Indigenous peoples in our country.

A range of Indigenous video presentations from the Downie-Wenjack Fund helped introduce students to these issues over the year, providing a vital firsthand perspective from leaders such as Aaju

Peter C.M., a renowned Inuk clothing designer, lawyer and activist, Moon of the Crusted Snow author and journalist Waubgeshig Rice, and Mohawk Nation member Dawn Hill of Turtle Clan from the Six Nations of the Grand River Territory, a clinical social worker and author of the memoir Memory Keepers

We hope these experiences coalesce not only into a greater understanding of the issues facing Indigenous peoples, but also an interest in taking action to help further Reconciliation in our country.

F1 (grade 7) students wrapped up their year of Truth and Reconciliation learning with a visit to Crawford Lake’s 15th-century palisaded Iroquoian village where students learned how the Indigenous communities lived there sustainably for generations.

The foremost 2021-22 strategic initiative at UTS was anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion, but targeted efforts on three other vital initiatives for our school continued to make progress.

CREATE A SCHOOL CULTURE FREE OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND ASSAULT

Students on the Gender Equity Committee worked together with UTS administration and school lawyers to improve the Policy and Procedures on Respecting and Accommodating Transgender Students. With the new building, UTS had built-in washrooms dedicated as gender-neutral (our location at 30 Humbert Street had washrooms that were adapted).

Also, the school is following the Ontario Human Rights Code to respect students’ requests to use their preferred names and pronouns, and providing staff a list.

We endeavour to involve parents in these decisions (as appropriate).

MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS

Support for mental health and wellness deepened as students grappled with the pandemic challenges of online learning and social isolation. From ending the stigma about mental health to therapy dogs to UTSPA-hosted Conversations with UTS Social Workers, our concerted efforts to enhance wellness earned a Gold certification from OPHEA Healthy Schools for the third year in a row.

DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

UTS made efforts to encourage digital citizenship in our student community by enrolling in National Online Safety, an organization that offers resources to parents and staff about how to keep children safe online.

THE STRENGTH PARTNERSHIPS

We take strength in our relationships, working with partners on local, national and international levels to enhance education for our students and build common knowledge. Our foremost is our official affiliation with the University of Toronto. The University is our partner and our home, with our renewed school embedded on the St. George Campus. We also seek synergies through local partnerships such as the Best Buddies Program, the Bridge Project with Afghan Women’s Organization Refugee and Immigrant Services, and others, and forge international partnerships for a global education. Often, we bring multiple partners together for greater impact.

UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO: OUR MOST VITAL PARTNERSHIP

Our University of Toronto partners include:

• Ontario Institute for Studies in Education

• Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education

• Rotman School of Management and I-Think

• Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy and the Global Ideas Institute

• Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work

• Faculty of Engineering

• Departments of Psychology, Germanic Languages, Sociology and more

UTS lives our commitment to drive progress in the field of education by working in close collaboration with the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). Each year a cohort of approximately 30 master of teaching students are assigned to UTS to work with our exceptional teaching faculty

as part of their training, as well as working as facilitators at UTS Summer Camps.

The Eureka! Institute @ UTS also plays a critical role. As one of a few research institutes based at a secondary school in Canada, the Institute serves as a hub for University researchers to conduct research in real classrooms and collaborate with UTS teaching staff.

STORIES IN PARTNERSHIP

Powerful SummerUp partnership

Jonathan, a grade 11 student from Milton, Ont., honed his power of speech at UTS Debate and Public Speaking Camp in summer 2021 through what Principal Rosemary Evans calls “a powerful new partnership.” He was one of 120 Black youth who attended UTS virtual camps through the SummerUp initiative created by Trevor Massey and his organization, the Lifelong Leadership Institute, with funding from the Ontario Ministry of Education. Jonathan says, “It was important to me to exercise my mind and grow and develop a hunger and this thirst to learn more. That's

definitely something that SummerUp and the Debate Camp at UTS taught me how to do.” The partnership continued for summer 2022 with UTS camps Bright Lights in the Lab, I-Think and Maximum City. For Bright Lights in the Lab, a neuroscience camp, summer 2022 would mark 12 years of partnership with Firefly Foundation by adding another partner into the mix: the Prism Lab at the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, which provided EEG headsets to allow campers to study how brain waves respond to stimuli. Also as part of the partnership, UTS supported Prism Lab research that aims to develop a communication system for youth with severe motor impairments by allowing them to control a computer using their thoughts and brain activity, by sharing the opportunity to take part in this research with our students.

COVID-19 and our youth: SickKids’ Caliper Initiative

What are the long-term effects of COVID-19 on our youth? UTS partnered with SickKids’ Caliper Initiative which aims to monitor the effects of COVID-19 exposure and antibody response in

children and youth. The school supported the research by presenting students with the opportunity to take part. The learning works both ways as students see and contribute to important scientific research.

Innovation at the UTS Timeraiser Accelerator

This was the third year of the UTS Timeraiser Startup Accelerator, a multifaceted partnership between UTS, students and alumni, coordinated by Dr. Cresencia Fong, the UTS head of teacher learning, innovation and research. For the first time, the program offered a $1,000 entrepreneurial investment to a winning team of students. Joseph Wilson, a PhD candidate in Linguistic and Semiotic Anthropology at U of T, led students through the after-school entrepreneurship program, where students develop social, technological or business ventures and pitch for the opportunity to receive mentorship and advice from alumni volunteers. The $1,000 winners were M4 (grade 10) students Nicole and Mia and their non-profit, Future

for You, a website that plans to address a significant gap they discovered in postsecondary planning tools, where students with developmental or intellectual delays and disabilities are underserved. The idea emerged from another UTS partnership, with Heydon Park, a Toronto school for girls, through the Best Buddies program, a national organization which aims to form lasting friendships between people with intellectual or developmental disability, and those without. Through this program, Mia and Nicole became really curious about the options available for their Best Buddies after high school.

“Before Best Buddies, I never had the chance to interact with people who have disabilities,” says Mia. “And now they’ve become just like any other friend we have,” says Nicole. “They’re the same as us.”

The Beyond Bullying Project: LGBTQ2SI+ Learning

UTS took part in the Beyond Bullying research project about sexuality, gender and youth

M4 (grade 10) students Nicole and Mia launched their non-profit, Future for You, through the UTS Timeraiser Accelerator Program, which runs out of the Lang Innovation Lab.

during the COVID-19 pandemic, led by Dr. Jessica Fields, Professor of Health and Society at U of T Scarborough, and Dr. Jen Gilbert, Associate Professor of Education at York University. For two weeks in May 2021, UTS students shared their personal stories about LGBTQ2SI+ sexuality or gender via an online video portal. At the end of the 2021-22 school year, Jen and Ali Greey, a PhD student at U of T’s Department of Sociology, presented their findings to UTS staff, emphasizing importance and curiosity rather than perfection: getting it right every time doesn’t matter as much as approaching gender and sexuality as dynamic, meaningful aspects of our students' lives. Another interesting observation is how much small gestures of welcome matter to UTS students. “When students describe what makes their school welcoming, they often point to smaller, quieter moments of hospitality,” says Jen, “such as a teacher who really makes an effort to use a student’s new pronouns or having a low-key open door for students who want to talk, or discussing LGBTQ2SI+ issues as themes in an ordinary conversation.”

International exchanges return

In April, UTS hosted its first in-person international exchange since the onset of the pandemic, with 22 senior students from Rysensteen Gymnasium in Copenhagen, Denmark visiting our school for four days as part of the UTS Global Citizenship Program.

Other international partners

• Shanghai, China – Number Two High School Affiliated with East China Normal University

• Germany - Carl-Schurz-Schule, a high school in Frankfurt

• The U.S. – Tabor Academy in Massachusetts, as a member of the United Global Education Network

• Japan – secondary school educator research partnership through OISE and the Eureka! Institute @ UTS with the University of Tokyo's Consortium for Renovating Education of the Future Project

• Sweden – Kristianstad University transformative learning professional development partnership through OISE.

International exchanges are back in-person ‒ UTS Drama Teacher Gabrielle Kemeny (front third from right) took Rysensteen Gymnasium students from Denmark on a walking tour to Christie Pits Park, where they listened to a Canadian audio play about the Christie Pits Riots.

A space for inclusion to take root and grow

HOME to the UTS of the FUTURE

This year, we finally returned to the school of our dreams, our historic home made new thanks to $63 million raised by our community through the Building the Future Campaign.

The iconic design is a standout on Bloor Street, taking care to incorporate the historic facade of UTS into a modern incarnation, featuring a striking white brick exterior and the Withrow Auditorium, which cantilevers over an outdoor plaza.

Students crossed the threshold of our stunning, refurbished home at 371 Bloor Street West and stepped into the future of UTS on April 5, 2022. The epic day, over 110 years in the making, marked the realization of a once impossible-seeming dream for decades of UTS students, staff, alumni and parents, as well as UTS Principal Rosemary Evans and Board of Directors Chair Jim Fleck C.C. ’49, P ’72

The renewed building gives UTS the space in which to do things better; it opens up new possibilities, and brings us closer together. Embedded on the University of Toronto’s St. George Campus, the location provides ample opportunities for access to University facilities, and for partnerships and connections with some of the most innovative thinkers in our country.

The design by architect Don Schmitt C.M. ’70 and Diana Saragosa of Diamond Schmitt Architects represents a 100 per cent increase in school space, which includes 60,000 square feet of renovations including the historic facade, plus 60,000 square feet of new space.

Communal spaces and natural light, especially the sky-lit Fleck Atrium at the heart of the school, are all designed to foster a sense of connection and community. Total project costs are anticipated to be in the range of $90 million.

While the doors opened in April and classes began, work on the building continued. In May, the UTS Library, with its wall of windows overlooking the Wright Living Lane Entrance and moveable stacks, and the McIntyre Gymnasium, a double gym with bleachers for fans, built below ground,

officially opened to students. Work on the final major facility, the Withrow Auditorium, continued into the summer.

Our new school serves as a foundation for the future of UTS that will carry our illustrious traditions of extraordinary education and powerful community forward into the next generation and beyond.

TWENTY FOUNDERS FOR THE FUTURE

The renewed UTS is built on the transformational generosity of 20 Founders, who each gave $1 million or more to support the Building the Future Campaign. They are honoured with named spaces in our beautiful new home. Thank you so much to all our Founders, for leading the way to the future UTS, as well as the 2,600 donors whose gifts large and small made the campaign a success. Their gifts will keep giving back to UTS students for generations to come.

THE HEART OF OUR SCHOOL

On April 5, the celebratory cheer of students and staff rang out as our community gathered to officially cut the ribbon on the Fleck Atrium, the heart of our school. Named for UTS Founder, Board of Directors Chair Jim Fleck, who led the Building the Future Campaign to bring our new school to life, the Atrium is designed as a gathering place, crossroads and forum for the school community. Students were quick to take ownership of the Atrium's beautiful Learning Stairs as a space to gather with friends for lunch or homework, for co-curricular events like Asian Heritage Month celebrations and Fajita Fiesta, and even transforming the space into an impromptu concert hall.

The McIntyre Gymnasium

The Withrow Auditorium

Extending into our school from the direction of the U of T campus, the accessible Wright Living Lane Entrance leads into the Atrium’s lower level.

The secondary entrance to our new school is the Eureka! Entrance off Huron Street at Bloor, preserved from our historic building and named for UTS Founder Richard Ingram ’61, who also, along with his spouse, Satoko Shibata, generously endowed the Eureka! Institute @ UTS. The Institute aims to close the divide between education research and the real-life practice of teaching. It’s one of only a few education research institutes based at a secondary school in Canada.

POWERHOUSE ATHLETICS FACILITIES

Equally spectacular is the UTS Athletic Centre, which opened in May. The McIntyre Gymnasium, a new double gymnasium named for UTS Founder Sandy McIntyre ’71, gives UTS the capacity to host sports tournaments, complete with cheering fans on shiny new blue bleachers. Overlooking the gymnasium is the new incarnation of the Ridley Centre fitness facilities, named for John B. ‘Jack’ Ridley, Class of 1916, who left a bequest to UTS. Students and staff are already training on the equipment, ordered in consultation with U of T’s Department of Kinesiology.

SHOW-STOPPING PERFORMANCE VENUES

The new UTS boasts two spectacular performance spaces. For the first time, our entire school has room to gather together, in the state-of-the-art 700-seat Withrow

Auditorium, named for John Withrow ’32 and his wife Margaret, though our community would have to wait until fall 2022 for access as finishing touches were ongoing.

The Jackman Theatre, named for UTS Founder, the Honourable Henry N. R. Jackman O.C., OOnt, CD, LLD, DHL ’50, is a studio theatre space as versatile as our students. Drama classroom by day, it transforms to a performance and event venue by night, conveniently located near the Eureka! Entrance on Huron Street for public access. The large heritage windows, a holdover from our historic school, are fitted with blackout curtains. Changerooms and storage facilities enhance the space. In the spring, the Jackman Theatre hosted everything from a dance theatre workshop for students with guest choreographer Nicola Pantin to Taiko drumming practices led by Anthony Lee ’86 to co-curricular gatherings.

PURPOSE-BUILT MUSIC ROOMS

The pool in the basement has been transformed into two beautiful sound-proof music classrooms with incredible acoustics and storage space for instruments, as well as private practice rooms for students. Here the music transforms from tentative notes into majestic melodies through practice and workshopping.

16 NEW CLASSROOMS

Throughout the school there are 16 new classrooms, many with natural light filtering down from the sky-lit Fleck Atrium. Every day in our new home, the learning comes to life as staff challenge students with deep

questions and new ideas, broadening our perspectives together.

BUILD AVI’S CLASSROOM CAMPAIGN

When students came home to our new school, the classrooms and halls were ready for them with furniture and equipment, raised thanks to the UTS community who supported the Build Avi’s Classroom Campaign. From beanbag chairs in the S6 (grade 12) common room to kettlebells in the Ridley Centre to stools in the art rooms, our community raised $2.3 million to ensure our home was ready for students, inside and out.

As the euphoria of being home settled in, students made our new school their own. Within days, it felt like we’d always been here, like we truly belonged here and were ready to seize the future.

INSPIRING VISUAL ARTS SPACES

Two adjoining, inspiring UTS visual arts classrooms on the third floor make the most of the ample natural light flowing in from the restored heritage windows on Huron and Bloor streets, unleashing the innate creativity of our students.

THE LIBRARY AS A HAVEN

The new UTS Library is a signature space in our school, envisioned as a haven for students to come and unwind from busy school life. With sliding stacks, study areas, a group meeting room and a variety of seating, the main feature is the stunning wall of windows overlooking the Wright Living Lane Entrance.

A HOME FOR INNOVATION

For the first time, UTS has a space solely dedicated to innovation. Named for UTS Founder Dave ’70 and Sally Lang, P ’99, the Lang Innovation Lab is where students bring their creative visions to life with 3D printers, hand tools, robotics supplies and much more. In the first few months, class and co-curriculars began to delve into the possibilities of this unique space at our school.

FOUR SHINY NEW SCIENCE LABS

Four new spacious science labs on the third floor are designed for optimal work flow, with facilities on par with professional research labs. When the doors opened, the experiments began in earnest. In the Ewens Chemistry Lab, named for UTS Founder Peter Ewens ’79, students created all the colours of the rainbow by manipulating the concentration of reactants.

THE CLASS of 2022

They were the first class to graduate from our renewed home, and while they only had three months at our new school, they made it their own.

During their six years at UTS, they endured the COVID-19 pandemic with hybrid learning, physical distancing and social isolation, and the move to our temporary location at 30 Humbert, yet emerged stronger than ever.

“No other generation, since perhaps those who attended UTS during the two World Wars, faced such challenges,” said Principal Rosemary Evans at the Graduation Ceremony on June 20 in the University of Toronto’s MacMillan

Theatre, adding that the efforts of our graduating class “made a real difference in our world, both the world of UTS and the larger world, by embracing the global movement challenging privilege and demanding true equity for all.”

After the ceremony, the Class of 2022, their families and UTS staff reconvened in the heart of our renewed school, the Fleck Atrium, to be together one last time and say goodbye, and celebrate their extraordinary accomplishment.

The future we hoped for and

THE DRIVE THAT MADE IT REAL

As we enjoy our inspiring new home on the University of Toronto’s St. George Campus and our strong affiliation and partnerships with the University, we reflect how far we’ve come. Over 10 years ago, this future we have today was uncertain, with our long-time affiliation with the University of Toronto and historic home on campus in question.

Rosemary Evans arrived at University of Toronto Schools in July 2011 as an ambitious new principal and scholar. Before her first day, news came that U of T had turned down the UTS proposal to redevelop our historic home at 371 Bloor Street West and indicated they would not be renewing our affiliation.

She dove in with determination to find a solution and began repairing relationships

with the University, building bridges and having conversations that created connections. A pivotal moment took place in September 2011, at a backyard Class of 1949 alumni gathering hosted by Jim Fleck C.C. ’49, P ’72. Former math and hockey teacher Bruce “Nails” MacLean pointed at Jim and told Rosemary, “You need to get that guy involved.”

Jim’s extensive career in business, his philanthropy in the arts and education and his strong University connections ‒he had taught at the Rotman School of Management, where Rosemary was his student ‒ made him the natural choice.

With Jim taking the lead as UTS Board of Directors chair in 2013, the two set to work and after extensive negotiations, UTS

secured a renewed Affiliation Agreement with the University in 2015, including a mandate to support the University’s strategic goals. We also had permission and an obligation to build. For decades, UTS students, staff, parents and community had dreamt of a modernized school building on par with the calibre of our students to replace our historic home, originally constructed in 1910 and long since past its prime.

If the UTS community could raise $60 million in donations towards the cost of construction, it would be paired with a $30 million debenture from UTS Foundation, and we could proceed to build our renewed school. The number was high, but the passion for UTS ran high too. Jim, as chair of the Building the Future Campaign, appealed to members of the UTS community to step up as Founders for our new school by giving $1 million or more. Once the first Founder stepped up, many more followed and soon UTS had 20 Founders, as well 2,600 donors from the UTS community who gave amounts large and small to make the Campaign a success.

PREPARING FOR LEADERSHIP TRANSITIONS

With the dream of our new school realized and our U of T Affiliation secure, the process of succession planning for Rosemary and Jim began, with Jim’s retirement planned for December 2022 and Rosemary’s for June 2023.

In June 2022, the Chair of the UTS Foundation Peter Buzzi ’77 was appointed as the vice chair of the Board, in preparation for Peter to take on the role of chair when

We broke ground on our new building on December 12, 2018.

As the building took shape, Rosemary and Jim’s concerted efforts continued to deepen our relationship with U of T through multiple partnerships and by seizing opportunities to support the University’s mission.

Work was well underway on our building when the COVID-19 pandemic changed our world, heightening the challenges inherent in providing an exceptional education. Through nearly three turbulent years, Rosemary and Jim rose to the demands of managing a school while building a school, as well as keeping everyone safe during a pandemic.

Progress continued unabated, even when not everything went as planned. Bricks became walls, walls became halls, and our school became a home. On April 5, 2022, the doors of our long-held dream opened to students, who walked in and marvelled at the future we had built together, thanks to the inspired leadership of Rosemary and Jim, who brought us home on the power of sheer will, deep determination and extraordinary love for our school.

Jim retired. In turn, the UTS Foundation welcomed Vanessa Grant ’80 as chair, also in June 2022. The leadership transition for our Finance Committee also began, with plans underway for Sandy McIntyre ’71 to succeed Andre Hidi ’77 as chair in January 2023.

Likewise, the search for a new principal began in 2022, with the creation of a Principal Search Committee, input on selection criteria sought from the UTS community and a formal job description posted, with plans to announce the appointment in the first quarter of 2023.

OUR STUDENTS SHINE

The pandemic didn't stop our students in 2021-22, who amazed in national and international competitions, on the stage, in debate and how they worked together to support each other.

Kat took silver and Emma took bronze for Canada at the 11th European Girls' Math Olympiad against 222 competitors from 57 countries around the globe.

SHOW returned triumphant to 371 Bloor Street West, dazzling audiences.

Angad claimed the title of National Champion at the Canadian Geographic Challenge.

Anneliese received the DSD II (Deutsches

Sprachdiplom II) recognizing that her German language proficiency is sufficient to apply for undergrad or graduate courses taught in German at German universities.

UTS students took one top gold, two gold, one silver, three bronze medals and three commendations at the British Physics Olympiad.

Students returned to the ice, coached here by Science Teacher Alan Kraguljac.

Both Varsity and Middle School History Bee and Bowl teams won their National Championships.

EXCELLENCE in TEACHING

UTS teachers continued to push the limits, embrace equity in education and bring innovation into the classroom, inspiring our students to greater achievements.

UTS Mathematics and Computer Science

Teacher Adam Gregson has been named a 2021 René Descartes Medalist. He also earned the Mathematical Association of America’s Edyth May Sliffe Award for distinguished teaching. Pictured above with a truncated icosahedron origami made from 90 pieces of paper, a.k.a. a buckyball, Adam uses origami to teach abstract algebra. Under his leadership, UTS has had several students on the Canadian International Math Olympiad Team, but the real success is how the Math Team has become more of a team, involving students from all grades with an equal gender balance.

“We’re trying to make math more social, about getting together with your friends,” says Adam. “Our big success is that many

more students are teaching each other and collaborating.”

True learning is a collaboration between teacher and student. Math teacher Andrew Wilson was selected as a 2021 University of Chicago Outstanding Educator, thanks to a gracious nomination from Qi Zheng ’21, who is studying there.

UTS teacher Isabella Liu won the 2022 Beaumier Award for High School/CÉGEP Chemistry Teachers from the Chemical Institute of Canada.

From our alumni community UTSAA

It might be said that the theme of the past year was emergence. The easing of pandemic restrictions meant renewed possibilities for alumni to step outside and connect with each other and with the school in person. And of course, the school’s spectacular new and revitalized spaces revealed themselves, and became available for future alumni to start making memories.

Towards the end of the year, alumni were able to resume some in-person activities that had been on hiatus during the pandemic, such as the annual Hockey Match (complete with post-game reception at the Duke of York), the Golf Tournament (one of our longeststanding traditions), and the Grad Lunch, where graduating students are welcomed into our alumni community. Alumni also had the opportunity to be in the classroom with students again, for example as guest judges at the UTS Mock Trial.

At the same time, one of the lessons learned from the pandemic was that technology can serve to enhance the ways in which alumni connect with each other and with the school. Once again this year, our virtual trivia tournament attracted alumni from across North America. Virtual arrangements also meant that out-of-town alumni could share their perspectives with students on panels at events like the M4/S5 (grade 10/11) Career Day and the Black Futures Month closing assembly. We hope to preserve this advantage of online events as we plan future activities.

Meanwhile, the opening of the revitalized 371 Bloor Street West this year is something in which the entire UTS community can rejoice. Alumni can be proud of their part in getting to this milestone, not just through financial support but also through their contribution of invaluable time and expertise to the project. At the same time, alumni support for the school’s bursary program has increased the possibility that all deserving students can take advantage of the excellent new facility.

Finally, UTSAA has followed with interest this year the school’s activities in the area of anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion, including the assessment of its efforts by Dr. Avis Glaze OOnt, who canvassed a wide range of perspectives, including those of alumni. We look forward to considering new ways in which alumni can support the school in this area in the coming years.

From our UTS Parents' Association

UTSPA

The UTS parent community continues to be most grateful to the UTS leadership team and staff for their commitment to student and staff wellbeing and exceptional student learning, while rising to the challenges of the pandemic and bringing us home to our renewed school.

The UTS Parents’ Association (UTSPA) remains focused on strengthening the UTS community and enhancing the overall student experience. This year, we actively contributed to the strategic initiative to improve anti-racism, equity, diversity and inclusion at UTS, and gave financial support to help furnish the renovated space at 371 Bloor Street West. Through these efforts and others, we endeavour to enhance our operations and our partnership with the school.

More than $22,500 in UTSPA funds were given to support student-led initiatives such as the Girls in Technology Conference, Mural Club, DECA, Robotics, History Bowl, Let’s Talk Science, the Canadian Young Physicists’ Tournament, Mock Trial, the Twig and Student Council. The funds also purchased audio, video and production equipment for the music department and SHOW.

In 2021-22, UTSPA held in-person and virtual events to bring our community closer together.

UTSPA Grade Representatives and Parent Volunteer Group leaders organized parent socials for all grades from F1 to S6 (grade 7 to 12).

UTSPA volunteers also helped make the UTS Virtual Open House in October a great success by sharing their passion for our school.

Student wellness continued to be a key priority. Nearly 200 parents attended the UTSPA Annual General Meeting, which included a presentation on Adolescents and the Challenges of Perfectionism and Procrastination, featuring Dr. David Kreindler '84,

head of youth psychiatry at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, and Dr. Marshall Korenblum, the medical director of SickKids Centre for Community Mental Health. Three virtual wellness conversations were also hosted for parents by UTSPA wellness coordinators, covering an introduction to wellness services and programs at UTS, concussion awareness, and an overview of online wellness resources for parents.

UTSPA executives also engaged in training to build a greater understanding of anti-racism, diversity, equity and inclusion in January, with a workshop led by York University Professor Dr. Ena Dua.

The UTSPA Summer Experiential Program continued virtually, with 55 students in M4 and S5 (grade 10 and 11) learning from the experience of 12 volunteer hosts in fields ranging from law and government to banking and engineering.

We are proud of what we were able to accomplish together in 2021-22, a challenging time in the history of our school. UTSPA remains committed to creating a more robust and active UTS community that improves our students’ educational experiences. At the same time, we will continue to help remove barriers and strengthen diversity, equity and inclusion within our school community.

Since 2007, parents of graduating students have celebrated their children’s graduation from UTS by making a gift to the Grad Class Bursary Fund in honour of their children. The Grad Class Bursary is endowed with over $235,000 which provides approximately $10,000 annually in financial aid to current UTS students. This year, many of the gifts in honour of graduating students were directed to our Building Fund. We thank our families for giving the gift of a UTS education through donations totalling over $28,000!
