The concurrent education program allowed her to pursue an Honours International Bachelor of Arts (iBA) degree in French Studies at Glendon, while taking courses at York University\u2019s Keele campus towards her Bachelor of Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FROM STUDENT TO TEACHER TO ADVOCATE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After graduating in 2018, she started teaching French at a high school in Etobicoke. But Thomas-Reynolds isn\u2019t your average teacher; she\u2019s also an advocate for her community who is using her voice to speak out against anti-Black racism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat began from the very first day I became a teacher in Toronto\u201d, she explains. \u201cIt\u2019s not necessarily something I had predicted. I knew I would help with Black History Month as we call it now. But it did take me becoming a teacher to see how much racism still exists in the city of Toronto. I found it very disheartening\u2026I felt I had no choice but to be an advocate. Who else is there when I\u2019m the only Black teacher in the school?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:37px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FROM PUBLIC TO PRIVATE EDUCATION<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Still a teacher in the public school system, this love for both education and her community led her and her business partner, Ramya Selladurai, to start their own independent school called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rootstoroutes.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Roots to Routes Academy<\/a> that will offer Mathematics in a global curriculum. They plan on operating under a hybrid model that will see them offer classes both online and in a physical space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI started it because of how passionate I am about change. Working in predominantly White schools during my teaching career, I\u2019ve seen how upper class families are able to navigate the education system\u2026When Black students feel underserved in the public school system, where can they go?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re really pushing against this Euro-centric notion of education\u2026We\u2019re offering high school credit courses for the summer where students can take a course with us that will help them feel more assured in their cultural identity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, they are focusing on Durham Region with its high Black and South Asian populations and its lack of private high school credit programs which are typically located in rich areas, including Lawrence Park and Oakville, targeting students from affluent families while hindering minorities from having the same access and opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While classes don\u2019t start until this summer, they currently offer podcasts geared towards Black parents to give them tips on how to navigate the education system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:37px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CULTURAL LITERACY MATTERS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As she looks back at her journey, there were a number of pivotal moments in her life that informed her understanding of culture, but perhaps none greater than her decision to spend a year abroad in France, as an exchange student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe year abroad that I had spent in France was transformative\u201d, she explains. \u201cIt changed my life and it changed my family\u2019s life too. Aside from that one time I went to Jamaica when I was 16 years old, it was my first time going abroad. I didn\u2019t have the privilege of travelling abroad growing up because it wasn\u2019t a privilege I could afford.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While in France, she had a profound experience that not only changed her as a person, but also as a teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI was there during the terrorist attacks in Paris in 2015. Because of that, the whole experience was super politically charged. That made me understand more about cultural literacy and the importance of understanding a culture. Learning more about the conflicts happening in France at the time and looking at my ability to travel to make myself a better educator was transformative and has helped me connect with my students a lot more and look at education with a more global perspective.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the cultural diversity of Scarborough and her upbringing as a Jamaican-Canadian in Toronto to her travels abroad, she is more dedicated than ever to see Black students prosper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether at Glendon or in the high school system, Thomas-Reynolds has a simple message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBlack representation in educational spaces matters, at every level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:37px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ADVICE FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Try to enjoy your last year of high school<\/li><li>Allow yourself time to reflect on the decision you\u2019re about to make<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by&nbsp;Kevin Bourne&nbsp;and originally published in&nbsp;Shifter Magazine.
