School District No. 85 covers a total of 22,416 square kilometres of the northern end of Vancouver Island and the adjacent mainland in British Columbia.
BCSTA's Rural & Remote Network met today to discuss how to best support students. Fort Nelson’s board chair thanked neighbouring districts for their support of students, staff and the community as schools reopen after three weeks following recent wildfires. #bced

School must be a place where all students, staff and families belong and feel safe, and where respect is shown for each other’s differences. It has been upsetting to see misinformation and disinformation used to attack some of our most vulnerable children and youth.
