The Durham Catholic District School Board has issued a final reminder for its Multi-Year Strategic Plan survey, urging everyone who has not yet responded to complete it before the survey closes on Friday, Oct. 16, 2026.

The board says the survey will help shape the priorities guiding its next multi-year plan, and it is seeking input from students, families, staff, parish partners, statutory and advisory committees, and community partners, according to the Oct. 14 notice. The board thanked those who have already taken the time to participate.

Community feedback will help ensure the new strategic plan reflects the voices, experiences and perspectives of the communities the board serves, the notice says. More information on the planning process is available on the board's website at dcdsb.ca/StrategicPlanning.
