Our Follow up to the superintendent of special services and the director of education

​Good afternoon Cristina & Rory,
 
We’ve been waiting patiently for the last several weeks for contact from you to establish next steps. We recognize the multitude of factors making this task overwhelming and daunting, especially with the deadline of September 2018 fast approaching. Using us will help you cover more ground quickly. 
 
We were hoping that a conversation would provide insight on how to best support you working towards the upcoming deadline of September 2018.
 
We’re prepared to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to the diabetes components and have the connections to do so. We understand that your plate is extremely full as diabetes represents only one of the four tasks at hand. We would be happy to take on creating a Diabetes Subcommittee if such a thing could exist. The creation of a subcommittee would help expedite this goal.
 
I hope you can understand how important this is to us as a parents – while our children are not the first TCDSB students with Type 1 Diabetes, they sadly will not be the last. We’re willing and able to do whatever it takes to help ensure this system is in place within the TCDSB so that future students of TCDSB remain safe, and in optimal health to be able to learn, prosper and grow.  
 
A timely reply with a set of action items to move this to the next level would be greatly appreciated.
 
   
Kind regards,
 
Lisa & Matt
