In the second half of the 20th century Scarborough Ontario was a vibrant community with booming growth in it's neighbourhoods, businesses and schools. Here I will be posting newspaper articles from that era which reflect important events, significant plans for the Borough ( some of which never came to pass) and in particular things that were happening in the educational community. I hope that the selected articles will be of interest to not only former Scarburbanites ( or Scarberians - depending on your point of view ) but to anyone who lived in the Toronto area and can relate to the issues and events of those days.
Some of these were first posted on the Staff Room conference on TEL for Toronto District School Board employees. I hope that through Blogspot a wider audience will appreciate them.
