For some time now, the @NLESDCA staff have been fielding questions resulting from social media posts making broad claims about students & individuals who identify as cats &/or animals. These posts claim that #nlschools are placing litter boxes in their buildings. 1/5
A happy, sad day for sure! Today we are celebrating @allchafe Allison Chafe’s retirement. 30+ years working to give children in our province the best education possible! Congrats on a career well spent! You will be missed! #retirement#relax#pullingcarrots

I’m so lucky to be a part of a team of dedicated professionals who always put students first. I couldn’t ask for a better group of colleagues. You lift me up! @PatriciaEmberle@allchafe@BKolonel
