University of toronto programs for high school students

Thanks to our affiliation with the University of Toronto, our students and staff have access to the University's considerable resources, including library system and athletic facilities, as well as our extensive learning partnerships. At UTS, being committed to excellence, means being committed to life-long learning and self-improvement at both the personal and organizational levels, and examining, on a regular basis, our practices and culture in relation to equity , diversity and inclusion , as well as anti-racism and any cultural biases that pose a systemic barrier.

It also means addressing difficult issues head on, but with compassion and empathy; and being cognizant of the need to support our students and staff's wellbeing and mental health at all times, but especially now as we band together to weather the COVID pandemic.
