CSAC Chairs, TAPCE Representatives Elect, and all Friends of Publicly Funded Catholic Education: 

Attached is the 2009 TAPCE Commissioning Ceremony Invitation that was sent to each school Chair on 10Nov2009.  We have been told that a number of parents have not received notification of this event. Therefore, we ask that you forward this invitation to the parents in your school community. 

The Commissioning Ceremony is recognized as the beginning of the TAPCE Representatives Term. Parents and Guardians of students of TCDSB Schools are eligible to be Representatives. This year TAPCE is looking to broaden the accessibility of Parents in school communities to useful resources and responsive capabilities. 

In accordance with OReg612 each CSAC has an Association Representative from one on the recognized Parent Organizations. In the Case of the TCDSB, we hope your school will chose to affiliate with the Ontario Association of Parents in Catholic Education and their Regional Council TAPCE. 

Join in our celebration of the accomplishment of the past year. Through working cooperatively TAPCE will continue to strengthen the publicly funded Catholic Education System in Ontario and further restore confidence in the TCDSB’s ability to be leaders and innovators in education.
