Readers curious about why the Fraser Institute review of Toronto schools did not contain rankings for Catholic elementary and high schools for 2015-2016, there is this reply from the think-tank to reader John Spence. “Greetings, As the result of a job action by Toronto Elementary Catholic Teachers’ (TECT) Union, students attending schools operated by the Toronto Catholic District School Board did not write the grade 3 and grade 6 provincewide tests in reading, writing, and math during the 2015-2016 school year. Since we base our rankings on the results of these tests we were unable to include TCDSB schools in this year’s ranking.”
