So good to see all our Eagles back today! Waterloo Region DSB

We’re focused on supporting the health and well-being of students and staff alike. This means helping staff have healthy and professional boundaries between work and home. It’s an investment in their mental health and their capacity to serve students. wrdsb.social/3Ewedyt
