Students First Ontario

We are a group of concerned parents of students who attend Oakville Trafalgar High School (OTHS) and other schools within the Halton District School Board (HDSB). Our school community has been thrust into the spotlight as a result of the arrival of a new teacher. The teacher’s inappropriate attire and enormous prosthetic breasts have created a significant distraction that has led to serious safety concerns for the students and staff at the school. This includes 3 bomb threats since September 2022. We had expected HDSB to address the situation at the start of the year - but they have allowed it to grow into an international controversy. OTHS and the HDSB have not only failed to address the situation, they have endorsed the teacher’s actions by refusing to uphold any dress code for teachers. This is despite the fact that a dress code applies to students enrolled at the school. As analyzed by Howard Levitt, Senior Partner at the law firm Levit Sheikh, it appears that the Board’s rationale might be more ideological than legal. In his assessment, he explains that by failing to take action, the HDSB “...actually creates a precedent and legally opens the door for further abuses”. Unfortunately, it appears the dress code is only the start of this controversy. It has become clear that the only way this is going to be resolved is through action by local parents - with support from other parents who want to ensure this never happens in their own childrens’ schools. All funds raised will be used to connect, organize and support like-minded parents in taking every action possible, including media and legal.
