On Friday, April 26, 2019, our annual Rainbow Spring Fling dance entered its ninth year. The event started in 2010 with 50 students. Now more than 200 high school students were in attendance on the dance floor.
The dance provides a safe space for LGBTTIQ students and straight allies to dance, laugh, and feel free to be themselves. At the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board our vision of student success goes beyond the classroom. The Spring Fling is just one example of how the District embraces equity and diversity.
