Dozens of teachers held a parade Tuesday afternoon through the neighbourhoods of Flemingdon Park and Thorncliffe Park where the majority of the Grade 12 students at Marc Garneau C.I. Many schools in Toronto have been planting congratulatory signs in the front lawns of houses where graduating students live. The teachers were willing to sign a waiver that wouldn’t hold TDSB liable for any accident, Herder said, but they didn’t hear back on that. So, the organizers plowed ahead, mobilizing dozens of cars on Tuesday decorated with balloons and posters to parade through students’ neighbourhoods. “I think the teachers had an amazing intent,” he said, adding it will be historically remembered as the year when graduating students had a parade.
