Barrie Sketchley will continue as principal at Rosedale Heights School for the Arts until his retirement in June, following a reversal by the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). A previous decision to transfer him to Harbord Collegiate Institute was met with significant pushback from the school community, which emphasized his importance to students and families. The TDSB's province-appointed supervisor acknowledged Sketchley's strong connection to the school. A new centrally assigned principal will assist Sketchley during the school year, aimed at facilitating transitions and supporting students and staff.
