All trustees are invited to attend the meetings and work together on the commitee and I look forward to the outcomes of our multi-pronged approach we have taken to building strong schools and strong communities.
The Board passed a two-year moratorium on school closures on November 30, 2010 with the intent of seeking to “understand the issues and impacts surrounding school closures” and to “identify a number of ways to support schools instead of close them.”
On December 14, 2010, the Board approved the creation of a committee “to further understand the issues and impacts surrounding school closures and that this committee work to keep schools open by recommending initiatives to the Board that will address these issues and impacts over the period of the moratorium. And further tasked “that the Committee report back to Board with the proposed terms of reference and a plan and budget by the end of February.”
The School Closure Moratorium Committee, comprised of Trustee Colburn, Trustee Hoffman and Trustee MacKenzie (Chair) have developed the attached Terms of Reference for the School Closure Moratorium Committee (Appendix I) for the Board’s consideration.
