National Day for Truth & Reconciliation

Each year, September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

The day honours the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.

Understanding Parents as Stakeholders

We strongly encourage parents/guardians/caregivers to engage with their local school PAC and connect directly with their District PAC. 

Learn more about the role of parents as stakeholders within the K-12 public system, how it works from local school, within the district and the province and how to get involved. 

Section 11 and the Appeals Process

CEO John Gaiptman will be presenting at BCEdAccess AdvoCon2022 on October 20, 2022. Learn how the School Act provides parents/guardians with the right to appeal any decision they feel significantly affects the education, health or safety of the student. This workshop will help you handle situations that negatively impact your child’s education and navigate the school district Appeals Process and submissions to the Superintendent of Appeals.
