Today to be last day of school

Posted on by Standard Respond

Today is supposedly supposed to be the last day of school, due to the fact that tomorrow is this weeks rotating strike, and monday is next week’s, and with full strike supposed to start tuesday… wouldn’t that leave all students of SD43 screwed? I mean we’ve all procrastinated until the last week…and without the last week actually being available…

I mean, other that Harry, who has already completed all of his course somehow, we are all rushing to get everything done. Even I myself am taking a couple minutes of my valuable time to bring this information to you, readers.

I understand that this teacher strike is necessary, but students could at least be allowed inside of the school instead of being forced to stay home, and maybe at least one teacher allowed to come in and help, but no, it is to be a full on lockout.

I will bring more information on this strike as i find out more

Teacher Strikes Cut into School Time

Posted on by Standard Respond

I support the teachers fully and all… but it certainly is making a lot harder to pass grade 9. Cutting into days when i could take tests and certainly removing much potential inquiry work time. And with news soon of a full out strike instead of just this rotating one, this is a bigger deal than most people realize. This stops year end field trips from happening, it takes up time students could work on their finals, and certainly cancels a lot of school grads or proms.

Let us pray that this does not carry on next year, that the government finally gives in and returns to properly funding schools instead of having them resort to fundraising for everything. Schools really need the funding to keep going, the government talks about a better tomorrow, but they really need to think about a better today as well, for without a better today then there will be no better tomorrow.
