Public schools are not failing students.
Public school teachers are not failing students.
The system is failing public schools, teachers and students.

Bill Hogan commented during yesterdays press release of #Policy713 saying “it’s no big deal” referring to kids coming out.
I retired from teaching one year ago. As I packed up me desk, I also pulled down the obituaries of my students from my bulletin board - students who all died by suicide.

HOW DARE YOU SAY “IT’S NO BIG DEAL.” #resign

Please retweet. A lot.
Education is the great equalizer! Thank you Brandi Rai for bring forward the real issue our kids face! The marginalized and racialized students need a voice and they deserve the same education every child deserves in this province! @ABschoolcouncil#ARA2023#abed#abpoli
