The Academic Resource Committee (ARC) is composed of volunteers who are parents or guardians of  students with learning differences at Northern.  Our mandate is to inform, engage, educate and support  students with learning differences and their families. We run a variety of meetings and events throughout the year, and we advocate within and beyond the school on topics that are relevant to students with learning differences and their education, development and well-being.  We have meetings, socials and events roughly six time per year. Details of each event will be shared through What's On, School Council emails and the principal’s weekly bulletins. 

ARC is where you can: 
  • Meet, chat with, share, and learn from other families with students with learning differences.​
  • Hear speakers on subjects relevant to learning differences and the social, emotional, and intellectual development of students with learning differences. 
  • Learn about strategies to support your student and enhance their education and overall well-being. 
  • Become informed on issues relevant to numerous major changes occurring in special education at Northern, in the TDSB, and across the province. 
  • Ask questions, provide input and help advocate to ensure that the academic resource program at Northern and within the TDSB stays strong and effective.
