Chair commits to strengthening governance practice
The Near North District School Board (°®¶¹´«Ã½app) Board of Trustees wishes to address recent events concerning the unfair treatment of °®¶¹´«Ã½app administration.
As trustees, our foremost responsibility is to serve students, families and our communities with integrity and respect. In this instance, our actions created uncertainty and concern among staff and the public. We recognize that the way in which this matter was handled did not reflect the standards of fairness, professionalism and collaboration that our communities expect of us.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we extend a sincere apology to our °®¶¹´«Ã½app administration, to all employees of °®¶¹´«Ã½app and to the public. We deeply regret the impact this has had on trust and confidence in the important work of our school system.
Moving forward, the Board is committed to strengthening our governance practices. Our collective focus remains on providing safe, supportive and high-quality learning environments for all students.
We thank our staff, students, families and communities for their continued dedication and support.
Ashley St. Pierre
Chair of °®¶¹´«Ã½app
