From May 5 to May 9, 100 students across Toronto will be missing school to participate in the Jer's Vision GSA Forum.

The event has the support of Ontario's Catholic teachers' union (OECTA has been promoting Jer's Vision quite a bit on social media recently) and unsurprisingly, the support of the TDSB.
