The pride flag
The Upper Grand District School Board (UGDSB) raises the Pride flag at all schools and workplaces to mark Pride Month. The flag remains flown throughout the month to demonstrate the board's commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment. As we recognize Pride Month across the UGDSB, we take this time to reaffirm our commitment to safe, welcoming, and inclusive schools and workplaces, places where every student and staff member can see themselves reflected, respected, and supported. We honour the joy, strength, and contributions of our students, staff, and families. Pride is more than a month on the calendar; it is a celebration of identity, and community.
