AVRSB Begins Phase 2 of Schools Reviews
The Annapolis Valley Regional School Board has released documents
related to Phase 2 of their ongoing Schools Reviews process. “Phase
2 – What are the Options?” presents a variety of options for reconfiguration
of the student populations in the three review areas to improve the delivery
of the education program to the region’s students. The options are
being presented to elicit feedback from the school communities which will
aid in the School Board’s long-term planning process. The Board is
developing a long-range plan for the region to ensure the continued delivery
of a quality educational program for all students in the face of declining
student populations.
Documents relating to the reviews for Annapolis County, Eastern Kings
(which includes Hantsport) and Hants West Schools have been posted
the School Board’s website under the School Reviews icon. The
most recent timeline for the Schools Reviews process is also available
at this location.
Public meetings have been scheduled to receive input to the options.
Interested parties are encouraged to submit written responses
to the options identified by the board as well as recommending other options
as they see as appropriate. Written submissions will be accepted until
December 31, 2009 and should be addressed to Stuart Jamieson,
Director of Finance & Operations, Annapolis Valley Regional School Board
P.O. Box 340, Berwick, N.S. B0P 1E0 or by email to schoolreviews@avrsb.ca.
Submissions can also be dropped of at the school and we will
ensure they are put in the school mail. Please make sure the envelope
is addressed to: Stuart Jamison, Director of Finance & Operations
and is labeled "School Review Phase 2 Written Submission."
