HRSB Governing Board votes 6 to 4 in favour of Keeping Park West P-9

On Thursday, June 26, 2014 by PWSParents

Park West School will remain P-9!


"It takes a village to raise a child"  quoted by board member Kirk Arsenault as he spoke in favour of the community of Park West.  We are fortunate to have such a village.

HRSB Member Sheryl Blumenthal-Harrison represented her constituents, our community, exceptionally with this Boundary Review.

We would like to extend a special thank you for all your support with this very difficult process.

Board Members, Kirk Arsenault, Sheryl Blumenthal-Harrison, Christy Linders, Cindy Littlefair, Steve Warburton and Dave Wright, voted the motion of staff down to result in Park West School remaining P-9.

The community can finally rest peacefully knowing their students will continue at Park West School and that the battle has been laid to rest.

Six months of upheaval, a battle that seemed like a marathon that would never end, but the effort aided in accomplishing a result for our children that our community can be proud of.

THANK YOU TO ALL WHO TOOK AN INTEREST IN OUR CHILDREN, STOOD UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN AND WAS HAPPY TO LEND A HAND WHEN A HAND WAS NEEDED.
