🧵YRDSB has made the decision to reduce our activity on the social media platform X at the district level. This change reflects our ongoing commitment to communicating with families in ways that are both effective and inclusive.

Moving forward, we will use X only for priority and emergency updates. These may include, but are not limited to: - Inclement weather days - School closures - Emergency notifications for families

Please note: Direct messages sent to our X account will not be monitored or responded to. We will continue to review our use of this platform and will keep families informed of any future changes.

For regular updates and to engage with us on social media, we encourage you to follow us on: Instagram and Threads: @yrdsb.schools BlueSky: bsky.app/profile/yrdsb.…
