Dauphin trustees are considering the creation of a policy requiring teachers to obtain parental consent to use a student’s preferred name and gender identity, if they are U16, and inform families about related changes requested by young adults #mbed #wfp https://t.co/oLebQFQK1p

Dr. Marc Kuly speaking about inner city school funding:
“The presence of poverty does not mean the absence of potential.”

Inner city schools could be a community asset if they received equitable funding.

Please read our article The Parental Rights Trojan Horse today in @WinnipegNews.

We object to the regressive politics that the term 'parental rights' often represents and how it distracts from actions that are needed to support students and schools.

As a parent of a school-aged child, I know that this is currently the practice. Calls, texts, emails, See-Saws, teachers keep parents very informed. And that’s a good thing!

So rather than promising something that’s already happening anyways, how about smaller class sizes?

@nofrillsCA there is currently a protest by anti-vaccine folks who have recently protested the democratic censure of a homophobic school trustee in the parking lot of your main street #winnipeg store. Do you support this use of your space? I don't and won't shop there if you do.

@minewasko @MBGov @enrichedacademy @AudreyGordonMB The Minister of Education has hired a private corporation b/c he doesn't understand the MB Ed curriculum?

The Minister of Education is burning tax payer monies to pay an out of province company when he could have paid school boards to deliver the content?

If we somehow find $3/4 billion to widen a road, we can never again say ‘we can’t afford it’. Homelessness, transit, active transportation, snow clearing, trees, arts, community centres, even potholes. If we don’t have money for these things, it’s because we choose not to.

[Police-Free Schools Winnipeg @PFSWpg]

In response to the false but common claim that “more information” is needed to prove police harms before removing police in school programs/police involvement, and punitive practices, we’re starting a 🧵 of recent studies, reports, and statements out of cities across the country.
