The bus group travelled with a stack of community petitions and letters of support and concern from the Owen Sound and larger community. The documents were delivered to MPP Bill Walker, who presented them to the Legislature, as the local group looked on from a full gallery.
A group of four students and two committee members were invited to a special private meeting with Education Minister Liz Sandals on Monday: a day which kicked off "Education Week" in Ontario. Attending
I recently had the opportunity to tour a high school in another part of the board that I first visited about fourteen years ago. At that time, it had a number of portable classrooms and was brimming with student vitality. What a contrast to now.
