Schools
What’s Gone Wrong
The school board has expanded administration instead of spending money where it belongs, in the classrooms. Student learning outcomes have declined, and the concerns of parents are not being heard. Access to school amenities has declined even as neighbourhoods are being densified.
The TEAM Difference
A TEAM School Board will focus on improving classrooms and school facilities while improving the school experience for all students and their families.
