A YRDSB Story: Celebrating 10+ Years of Poetry Slam Competition
Join us in celebrating over a decade of empowering voices at the YRDSB Poetry Slam Competitions! This milestone marks 12 total years of showcasing the creativity, resilience, and perspectives of our talented students through the power of spoken word poetry.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Armadale P.S., Crosby Heights P.S., and Wilclay P.S. for their invaluable contributions to the filming of this video. Additionally, we are grateful to all the schools that participated in the competition finals:
Elementary Schools:
Glenn Shields P.S. (Winner)
Oscar Peterson P.S.
Crosby Heights P.S.
Markham Gateway P.S.
Secondary Schools:
Maple H.S. (Winner)
Richmond Hill H.S.
Bill Crothers S.S.
Since its inception in 2012, inspired by a captivating spoken word event in Toronto, this program has flourished thanks to the enthusiasm and dedication of students, teachers, and poetry enthusiasts like former Superintendent of Education, Cecil Roach. His passion for poetry and belief in its transformative power for young people helped launch this incredible journey.
From its humble beginnings with a few high schools to the inclusion of passionate elementary students, the YRDSB Poetry Slam has become a platform for students to express their true selves, share their unique stories, and reflect on their experiences and the world around them. This competition has not only built confidence and resilience but also fostered a strong sense of community and empowerment among participants.
As we look back on these years, we are inspired by the lasting impact of this program and excited for its future growth. Here's to many more years of celebrating the vibrant voices of our students through the YRDSB Poetry Slam Competition!

YRDSB News & Events: Teamwork in Orbit - Inside the Lunar Rover Challenge
That’s not even my child’s school!!!!! I didn’t recognize not one teacher or student. My child didn’t get to do any of the activities shown such as musical instruments, Le cross, shop class or home economics class.
Ht are we supposed to give feedback to this. as this for patents. Its the board self promo like everything is back to normal after the pandemic and and better than ever. I hope patent understand this is not true. Some kids in the video had some good opportunities but they did not all have all these different programs. Don't let your kids watch this and get sad seeing what their class/school didn't /couldn't provide. Anyways try to enjoy the summer.
This is not heartwarming. There is no reason children should celebrate pride. It is sexualizing children and they are being taught that they are born in the wrong body which is literally not possible.
Celebrating “pride” isn’t something to celebrate in schools. It’s a disgrace to indoctrinate children and should be illegal to sexualize them. 1:05

What high school is that
Hi I mess you I think your ember me in Adrian
Good info 🎉
Beautiful ❤
i know this guy
When my daughters was Grade 3, She was at this school
Amazing message Cameron
Great idea and great teacher Kalpana👍
Look at this guys. Another point to note is that the people being interviewed are looking up instead of directly at the camera. it looks like they are lying according to body language.
ok a couple of things to note here. This interview is only from IB students. YRDSB check your google reviews you have a 2 star. This is bad. I wouldn't want to say bad stuff to get cancelled but just so you know i have no filter. I believe in free speech and yes this is a great program but its not for everyone. Please keep this in mind guys for everyone watching. You are not learning more this is all BS and 70 gets to 100 percent. What is this learning?
And it’s a pay to win
👍
👍

Love to see this!! ❤️
Amazing video❤
Its the best school
i remember going to lake wilcox from 2011-17

I miss this principle 😊
This is amazing. I am looking forward to attending in 2023 :)
I used to go to EJ sand public school it was since kindergarten till grade 4 I had to move but as I was a student back then that school cared so much they even had a elevator for special kids I miss going there😢
does yrdsb have a tiktok? cuz if they wanted more exposure, tiktok awards quality content but yt only boosts videos specifically catered towards the algorithim
i am still confused why this production is so high quality… why didn’t that budget go to improving schools??
or addressing student concerns? it's not about leaving it to the principals
and there r kids in this too why didn’t yt turn off the comments 👁👄👁
bro this is such a high quality production… and for what? good pr? 💀
My class was the best
