A message from the Govemment of Ontario.
September is always a busy time of year - for kids, parents and teachers alike.
It's an exciting time, too, a time when Ontario's kids have great expectations
for the coming year: As parents, teachers and government, we need to meet
these expectations. That's why we're doing so much to help them achieve their
full potential, and make this year the best school year yet. - Mike Harris
Quality education.
It's about putting kids first.
