The Winnipeg School Division has hired a firm to survey the community to help in the decision making process as to whether a school swap will be approved or tossed out.
Thus far in this blog, we have outlined the value of Earl Grey School, particularly in it's current location, the fact that it is, indeed, a school increasingly in demand and will be hindered by a smaller school facility, the potential for job loses and the closing of the Earl Grey Children's Centre, the dismantling of the Jr. High classes, which will leave many students in the cold and looking for alternatives with no guarantees of transport or adequate accommodation. We have expressed that this process has been done without giving much information to Earl Grey School as to the full impacts, but thus far the impacts that we are sure of are damaging to the school community, and force us to have to fight for the school's future.
You can help us by visiting the survey website and show your support in stopping the swap between Earl Grey School and LaVerendrye School and encouraging the Winnipeg School Division to follow one of the other paths to solving LaVerendrye's overcrowding issues.
