SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND - The Toronto District School Board is looking at closing school pools which will affect many Physical Education and Co-curricular sports programs across the city. This will also affect communities who use the pools when they are not being used by TDSB students. ACTION PETITIONED FOR - We, the undersigned, are concerned students, staff and citizens who urge the TDSB, City of Toronto, and Government of Ontario to work together to Save our School Pools.

I have been spending time reading through the personal stories shared in the comments about how these pools shaped lives and kept neighborhoods active. These accounts confirm that we are not just talking about infrastructure but about vital spaces that anchor our community. Behind the scenes I am currently preparing to present this collective perspective to board members to ensure they understand the human cost of these potential closures.

One hundred people have now attached their names to this cause. It is a quiet but significant sign that the loss of these swimming facilities is a concern felt across our neighborhoods.

The momentum building behind this effort shows how deeply these pools anchor our local community. We are nearing a significant milestone that will demonstrate the strength of our resolve to the school board officials.
