There are at least 80 different languages spoken by TDSB students. In general, students speaking English is the largest group, accounting for just under half of the students. English speaking students have a graduation rate of 5% below the TDSB average (73.5% compared with 78.6%). Students speaking Chinese, Hindi, Serbian, Bengali, and Tamil have the highest rate of graduation while students speaking Spanish and Somali have the lowest rate of graduation.

No wonder I can barely understand anyone in my area. 80 god damn languages all being spoken at once.

And no surprise the Somali's fail school at the highest rate.
