While we’re on topic of whether Ontario’s edu system is “broken” as @fordnation @LisaThompsonMPP say. Here’s latest @OECDEduSkills Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) results for Reading. Ontario is 1 of very top performing edu systems in world. #OntEd#OnPoli
@janemckennapc @EMcMahonBurl Jane - please advise as to the source of the student surveys that you refer to re: high school graduates "feeling ill-prepared for either post-secondary education or a life on their own".
Thanks Rick for sharing this out. As a result of this meeting, other positive improvements took place in the working relationship between the town and the HDSB !
Remember the friction with @HaltonDSB and the Town years ago over MSB lands. Town paid to save the land from developers. Also leased more land. Had a recent meeting with @gray4trustee Supt. Miller. Result: school board dropping the lease. Good news. #leadership @MelissaSecord
If you missed First Rider or just want to watch the bus safety video again with your kids, look under the Safety Tab on our website. https://t.co/xQFaqQmDHE
It is full of great points for all JK, SK and young students riding the bus (and parents!).
@HCDSB@HaltonDSB
Most children have not yet developed the skills to be safe in traffic.
Of particular concern is that they may have trouble judging the speed of cars.
If you drive or park near a school zone, please remain extra watchful for the little ones.

Today we remember and honour this truly amazing woman. I hope she impacts and motivates you to do better. She loved and supported ALL people. What an inspiration.✌🏻

With the revised HPE curriculum, students are receiving information about their physical, mental & emotional health that is topical, relevant, research-based & age-appropriate. We urge the Minister to keep the curriculum in place. Our letter here: https://t.co/X9g3UvYrLv
#Schools in @HaltonDSB are 0 to over 100 years old. Repairs in our older schools desperately needed. Why are our students being penalized? Contact your MPP and let them know your concerns. https://t.co/lx7fLqygWS
