The best choice in education is offered in PUBLIC education. Charters do not accept or have to accept all students. Expansion of charters = erosion of public education.

Good news.

request to use surplus dollars to purchase HEPA filters has been approved by gov't. This is an important layer to keep kids & staff safe, & even more important after last week's announcement. Thank you

Tx to parents, students & staff who spoke loudly & clearly about wanting protocols to continue. Board voted to advocate for testing, contract tracing, self-isolation, mandatory masking, cohorts and screening. You also helped shape

parents chose in-person learning based on the protocols we had in place. TO BE CLEAR: school divisions have no authority to require mandatory masking. I know this will deeply upset many.

There's a lot of hurt today. The rights of trans children have been attacked. To be clear, EPSB has a strong Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity policy, including allowing students to use chosen pronouns without notification or parental consent.

"Students under 12 yrs of age (almost all of our

Therefore, having other measures in place is critical." - quote from

We don't need more choice, and more ways to divide limited resources. What we need is adequate funding and greater support for the system that is proven, accessible and accountable: public education.

Earlier today,

passed its 2022-23 budget. We always knew the new funding formula wouldn't work for a large, growing division - that's now playing out in reality. Larger classes, staff cuts, doing more with less.

These partners remain confident, as do I, that the school re-entry plan ,as written, already provides local school authorities with the autonomy and flexibility to ensure local needs are met and to prepare schools for a safe re-entry. (4/8)

parents, students & staff. It's the right decision, but as with previous announcements like this - it's a reminder this pandemic is tough on families and kids. Kids have sacrificed so much.
