Thank you to everyone who came out to tonight’s Meet the Trustees event: Trustees, DECEs, elementary and high school teachers and EAs, Custodial and Maintenance staff, Office staff, Library staff, and more!

All students deserve safe schools.
All workers deserve safe workplaces.

The last time he was elected, children at my school were chanting “build the wall!” on the playground.

This was on a day when a newcomer family had just arrived at our school.

Educators, thank you for navigating the complexities of the days ahead with grace and love.

"Government doesn't have an income problem, governments have a spending problem," he says.

Ford has the most expensive office, largest cabinet and biggest budget in provincial history.

Buried at the very bottom of this story is data that there are only 10 international medical students in all of Canada

What should have been the lede is that Ford used a 10 seat increase in medical students he could have created at any time to fan the anti-immigration mood

Trustees need to learn why projected enrolment is down and take action.

[Waterloo Region Record @WR_Record]

A reorganization of classrooms at 51 schools across the Waterloo Region District School Board and the creation of a triple split class -- three grades in one class -- is not “business as usual,” the region’s teachers’ union says. https://t.co/oDTNkS06Sf

[Jeff Pelich @jpkitchener]
