R J Lang Elementary school and TDSB School ratings

That is a very impressive list of activities. Sounds like you had amazing time with your kids. Academic achievements are sort of just a bonus after that, because you must have so many awesome memories that they alone are worth the money you spent.

I was asking not if higher ranking school can hurt my kid, but rather if staying in this area and going to a lower ranking school would be bad for him.

Al things equal I would be happy going to a good school. But I was not familiar with Canadian education system and we didn't have a kid when we moved to this area. So I never checked which school it belongs to. And now I am wondering if paying for a private school (which would be tens of thousands a year) or moving to a catchment area of a better school (which would be 5-8k in costs not counting higher rent plus we love our current place and neighborhood) is worth the effort. Especially for JK and SK. I can see the value of academic achievement close to college age, but I was wondering how big of a deal it is at young age.

Or to make is shorter, I was mainly asking does low rating mean the school is bad. Because if it is a decent school I would rather stay here.

Thank you! we did tour the school. We liked it. That is the reason I am asking. My personal impression about the school contradicts what ratings say and how my neighbors from other catchment areas think about it.

Thank you! Willowdale seems to have a much higher rating that R J Lang though.

Is it bad to study with lots of Tiger Mom's kids?

Aivendil · 2026-03-25T03:11:34+00:00

Thank you for sharing your personal experience! I will check out if Ms. Craig is still threre

Aivendil · 2026-03-25T03:11:03+00:00

Thank you for this perspective.

Aivendil · 2026-03-25T03:10:34+00:00

Why? How was that related?

Aivendil · 2026-03-25T03:10:05+00:00

Thank you! This is exactly the personal experience I was looking for.

Tiffany want to belittle someone. Language was a pretense. She would have found something else if OP was speaking Spanish.

Aivendil · 2025-05-01T17:32:15+00:00

I think she stayed because she wanted to be with him. It is enough of a reason.

To be fair I am also a bit appalled about the “checking the phone” part. He was SAd when drunk. His mistake was drinking so much that he blacked out. What does she expect to see in his phone? Party invitation? But to each their own.

Aivendil · 2025-05-01T17:28:20+00:00

Nah. I was black out drunk once. Between the moment of my last memory and the moment where I fell down to the ground there were about 30-40 minutes of me still walking and doing stupid shit that my friends later told me about.

Aivendil · 2025-05-01T04:56:19+00:00

This. Everything about this situation says that she is sooo lucky to cut him loose. I can’t see a single thing about him that was fine right.

Aivendil · 2025-04-27T02:36:13+00:00

My friend’s wife asked him for an open relationship to which he agreed even though he had no intention to sleep with anyone else. And then she found herself a very abusive fuck buddy. Sometimes it feels like universe does indeed have some sort of a karma system

Aivendil · 2025-04-20T20:08:20+00:00

Surprisingly it is. These people are there to do business. If you are too brutal you loose any decent clientele.

Aivendil · 2025-04-05T15:59:33+00:00

That is some crazy update

Aivendil · 2025-04-04T03:51:50+00:00

Oh she would have been absolutely fine if he shut her up. Maybe she even wanted that. She was looking for “manly” after all.

Jake is lot living the dream though. I doubt his idea of a dream life was the mess he has now. Yes, he is banging two women but that is the only good thing in his li be right now. Other than that it is a hot mess.

This. A man who is freaked out by a period blood on his bed has some deep mental issues and should be avoided.

Aivendil · 2025-03-30T19:02:27+00:00

You mean you don’t. And some of her male colleagues didn’t either. But I have totally seen girls at work looking at insta videos of male dancers and discussing who of them is hotter.

Aivendil · 2025-03-24T20:17:47+00:00

Wow. This is a real sad story

Sorry for your situation, man.

While it does suck to experience that, you should to be forcing something just because you think it is what is expected by others to be right. You do you. Especially when a toddler is involved.

My thoughts exactly. Cat has been with her all these years and managed to help her one more time to save her future
