We were pleased that our presentation of
Guest Speaker Dan McGann on Teenage
Mental Health Issues was well attended in
November. Dan spoke to us from both a
clinical and personal perspective, discussing
mental health issues on many levels.
Included in his presentation were two
youths, dealing with their own struggles and
successes through Dan’s treatment
program. It was a very informative evening
for all who attended and gave us a lot to
think about!
The sale of ‘Gently Used Loyola Uniforms’
held the evening of fall semester ParentTeacher Interviews was very successful!
All proceeds from that sale went to the
Loyola Breakfast Program.
We are planning on holding another
‘Gently Used Loyola Uniform’ Sale on the
Parent-Teacher Interview Night this
semester so if you have any uniforms that
are no longer needed please drop them off
at the school main office and if you’re
interested in purchasing used items
please come out and shop! (Please note:
purchases can be made using cash only)
Wishing you all Blessings of Success &
Happiness,
Lynda McQueen, Council Co-Chair
From Your Catholic School Trustee
Sharon Hobin
Happy New Year and wishing winter a fond
farewell! I am not a lover of winter so the
recent snowfalls have been unwanted and
wished away. The positives are all the great
things happening in our schools. As we are
now in the second semester I know this is an
exciting time for our students in grade 12 as
they make their way on to their next
adventure in life; be that university, college,
apprenticeships and the world of work. I
wish all of you the very best as you await
those results and make those important
decisions. I look forward to seeing you at
your graduation!
To keep you in the loop I am happy to bring
you up to date on some plans for the next
few years for Dufferin-Peel as well as bring
you more information about the Family Life
and Health education programs that you may
have been reading about. In part, it is
emphasized that our entire curriculum is
written and taught through a Catholic lens
and approved by the Institute of Catholic
Education (ICE) and the Catholic Bishops of
Ontario. I emphasize all curriculum, not just
Religion courses. In November of 2014 our
Director of Education, John Kostoff sent a
letter to our elementary parent community
which I would like to share:
“As a publicly funded Catholic school
system we teach all curriculum through our
faith lens. Human development and sexual
health is no exception. As Catholics, we
understand that parents and guardians are
the primary educators of their children.
Pope Paul VI pronounced in Gravissimum
Educationis (Declaration on Christian
Education): “Since parents have given
children their life, they are bound by the
most serious obligation to educate their
offspring and therefore must be recognized
as the primary and principal educators”.
Your role in the teaching of family life issues
is pivotal and vital. In our system of
education, parents, the Church and the
school cooperate in supporting this vision of
life through our Fully Alive Program. For
over 35 years, Catholic schools have been
teaching a family life program which covers
human development and sexual health.
Under the guidance of the Catholic Bishops
of Ontario, the Fully Alive program was
written to provide a distinct Catholic
framework for family life education. Our
Family Life program is closely tied with the
Religious Education program. In Ontario
Catholic schools; this is embedded in the
Religious Education Program and across
curriculum areas. In our Secondary schools
Family Life is part of our Religious
Education Program. As the Bishops note:
the program has been developed to pass on
a distinctively Catholic view of human life,
sexuality, marriage, and family. Its goal is to
complement the efforts of families and to
support what parents are doing at home. We
will continue to teach the Fully Alive
program as we move into this new Health
and Physical Education curriculum. For
more information on the Fully Alive
program, please visit the Ontario Bishops’
website at:
http://www.acbo.on.ca/englishweb/fullyalive
.htm.”
With reference to technology, over the next
year we will:
development and training practices in areas
of technology that encourage and enable
learning and growth for all
apps process for our system
a Google-based internet platform computer
-based local technology plans
at each school
schools before May
where it supports learning
Board with implementation strategy. This
new policy will have to match the new
movement to allowing more technology
within the classroom.
At our December 2014 Board meeting our
school board approved a multi-year strategy
for the deployment of accumulated surplus,
including a re-investment of $6 million in
learning, technology and infrastructure to
support student achievement and well-being.
The $6 million will be reinvested in
alignment with the trustees’ budget priorities
which are demonstrated through the Board’s
Strategic Plan and Catholic Board Learning
Plan. Some of the investments are:
requirements for information technology;
an on-line payment system for schools and
implement an integrated Financial/Human
Resource ERP system;
, French
Immersion and library resources; $0.3
million for 21st Century Learning;
In addition to the reinvestments above,
trustees also agreed to the re-direction of
$20,000 from previously committed and
approved accumulated surplus to review and
update the board’s community studies
resource, Our Story Our Tradition Our
Journey.
We are pleased to have been able to redirect
funds from our accumulated surplus into
programs and expenditures that will benefit
students. It is our hope as we move forward
to continue to implement our five year
strategic plan without interruption due to
funding. We know that the provincial budget
is looming and it is our hope that education
will continue to be fully supported. Trustees
have been successful in the support of
excellent programs within a balanced
budget. I am proud of that legacy. I had the
opportunity to ask the Minister of Education
to not paint all boards of trustees and staff
with the same brush. We have worked hard
and despite cuts, have continued to meet our
strategic goals within our sustained Catholic
lens.
Please support the work of your Catholic
School Council as they are your parent
voice.
Please do not hesitate to call me and as
ever, I wish that God will always hold you in
the palm of His hand.

Letter to the Dufferin-Peel Community on the Revised Health and Physical
Education Curriculum
The Ministry of Education released its updated Health and Physical Education Curriculum Guidelines on
Monday, February 23. Our preliminary analysis would indicate that the document is a significant update of
the curriculum. Working with the Institute for Catholic Education (ICE) and the Assembly of Catholic
Bishops of Ontario (ACBO), we will meet the expectations of the Ministry, within our Catholic faith context,
in delivering the curriculum to our students.
It is important for parents and guardians to know that, as a publicly funded Catholic board, we teach ALL
curriculum through our faith lens. Human development and sexual health is no exception. As Catholics,
we understand that parents and guardians are the primary educators of their children and that your role in
the teaching of family life issues is pivotal and vital. In our education system, we support this vision
through our Fully Alive program. In fact, the vast majority of the revised curriculum is already covered
within the Fully Alive program.
For over 35 years, Catholic schools have been teaching a family life program, which covers human
development and sexual health. Under the guidance of the Catholic Bishops of Ontario, the Fully Alive
program was written to provide a distinct Catholic framework for family life education, which is closely tied
to our Religious Education program and embedded across multiple curriculum areas.
All curriculum, including the Health and Physical Education curriculum, is written using specific
expectations, so that parents, students and teachers have a clear indication of what is expected of
students by the time they finish learning the material at each grade level. Curriculum documents also
provide teachers with possible suggestions and examples to illustrate the intended learning. These a re
NOT mandatory. Teachers support student learning through materials appropriate within the context of a
Catholic classroom.
As we do with all curriculum, we will teach the revised Health and Physical Education curriculum through
a Catholic lens. Now that the curriculum has been released, the Catholic education community will work
to develop resources that support our Catholic teachers and ensure that the curriculum delivered in our
classrooms is consistent with our Catholic teachings. The content related to family life will be taught in our
Fully Alive program, which provides its own set of prompts and examples. Be assured, also, that, we will
continue to offer a rich, holistic curriculum, which provides a context for healthy sexuality that is shaped
by a Catholic worldview.
Sincerely,
John B. Kostoff

"Our Library Learning Commons staff collaborate with classroom teachers and community
partners to enrich student learning, give students a voice and provide them with avenues to
share their creativity. The ESL classes had a chance to think through the question "Who am I?"
and respond through poetry writing and mask painting during a PoeticArt Workshop which took
place in our library last November."
DECA, DECA, DECA
By: Molly Brown
It has been a successful and busy year for Loyola’s DECA (Developing Excellence Celebrating
Achievement) club. This business oriented club provides students with hands-on experience in the business
world, and prepares them to be leaders of tomorrow. In early November, 20 students competed in the
Regional competition at Lincoln Alexander Secondary School and came off strong. Teresa Marotta, Ju liana
Zadarko, and Molly Brown all placed in the top ten in their respective categories. It gave all students a taste of
what DECA competitions are all about! Then on February 6th, 10 Loyola students travelled to the Sheraton
Centre in Toronto to compete in the DECA Provincial competition. After months of preparation, our DECA
team gave it their best shot. While no medals were taken home this year, it was a fun and enriching
experience for all. A big congratulations goes to the entire team for their dedication and work up to the
competition. An extra big thank-you goes out to Ms. Lofaso, and Ms. Pinchak, for their endless support and
commitment to the club for the entire year. Mr. Mosdell for his help at Provincials. It would not have been
possible without you all!
The Loyola Tuck Shop is in it’s

operating POS equipment;

more!!

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER
Feel the Beat 2014!
Written by M. Dugo
Through rain, sleet, lots of snow
…despite all this we got our show!
‘Feel the Beat’ was an amazing show of just how much talent we have at Loyola! From our
performing veterans to our bright new talent, the audience loved them all. A little snow did not
stop a big crowd from cheering on every act!
Both the first and second halves of the show featured two of my favourite collections of singing
voices with our Loyola Singers and our Vocal Class. As always we enjoyed many bands with their
interesting names
– ‘The Owls’,
‘James Jakasa Quartet’
‘The Oddz’
‘Reptilia’
‘Mom’s Spaghetti’ – delicious!
We enjoyed many musical soloists who sang and played pianos, guitars and violins – Dominik
Wrona, Jeannine Fontyn and Thomas Piekut. A big shout out to Thomas and Jeannine, our
magnificent grade 12’s who lead the way!
Bravo to all our sweet sounding soloists – Sofia Latincic, Weronika Brzezinski, Pamela Lekkas,
Lia Pedroso, Sancia Sebastian, Jennifer Glugosh, Isabella Tonon and Edo Odozor.
We enjoyed many duets and trios – Sam Viloria and Kuba Kotoski; Daniela Londono, Mina
Ghaly and Lia Pedroso; Stephanie Nakashima and Lilli Debeck; Logan O’Hara and Adam Prus;
Joseph Cunanan and Julian DeBelen. What a talented team of performers! Special shout out to
Giselle and her brother Luc who performed together.
How about the moves of our amazing dancers – Cassandra Pedersen, Kayla Astolfo, ‘Hanzo’ and
‘Toxic Culture’. I danced all the way home! And then there was my favourite yo-yo guy also
known as Kuba – you left me dizzy! Our MC’s Lia Pedroso and Diego Sanchez kept the show
going smooth, never skipping a beat!
Thanks to all the teachers who helped supervise this wonderful event:
our amazing Sound & Light Crew and their leader – Mr. Bronson, my favourite drummer!
a major salute to Ms. Van Gorp, the mastermind behind all this talent. She finds gold every
time!
our Visual Art students and teachers for their art display in the atrium.
Ms. McFadden and HOPE for providing refreshments and goodies during the show.
We salute all of you!
H.O.P.E. (Helping Other People Everywhere).
By McFadden
The HOPE club met every Tuesday after school in room 109 to plan ways of
Helping Other People Everywhere.
HOPE continues the tradition of honouring the school custodians with its
unique annual Custodian Appreciation Dinner. HOPE club members prepared a
full multi-cultural homemade pot luck dinner, including appetizers and desserts
and enjoyed a wonderful meal of unity with Loyola’s dedicated and hardworking custodians. During the day, all students were provided the opportunity
to sign Thank You cards for our custodians, and the students were very grateful
for this opportunity to show their appreciation of our clean and safe school.
HOPE club set up the display case for the virtue of December, Hope. The
creative skills of the club were utilized in an attractive and meaningful display
relating to the Advent season before Christmas.
Early in the New Year, HOPE asked the Loyola community to donate new mitts,
hats, scarves and socks for the homeless. The club went to downtown Toronto
to offer the donated items to the homeless to help them just in time for the
cold weather in February.
In early Semester 2, the HOPE club baked cookies and decorated cupcakes in
order to have fresh homemade treats for its Valentine’s Day charity bake sale.
Thanks to the hungry students, the bake sale was sold out!! The club enjoyed a
special meeting on Shrove Tuesday, with the staff advisors serving pancakes to
the club members!!
HOPE plans to visit Carmel Heights Senior’s Residence for some companionship
with the elderly. We will be providing refreshments during the Black History
presentation.
For other details, join the HOPE club. The club meets every Tuesday after
school in room 109 to plan ways of Helping Other People Everywhere.
New members are always welcome. HOPE to see you there!!
LOYOLA HAS ENJOYED A GREAT YEAR TO DATE!
WE BELIEVE IN OUR SCHOOL, OUR STUDENTS, THE
STAFF, OUR CHURCH, AND OUR FANTASTIC LOYOLA
