Strong public education is built on community support. We need to come together—parents, teachers, and citizens—to demand the resources and respect Alberta students deserve.

Interesting read on the upcoming school trustee elections. The article points out how special interest groups are targeting school board elections. It's vital that teachers, parents, and others pay close attention to the platforms for candidates in trustee elections. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

ATA press conference time - -government is still offering the same wages teachers already voted down in May - Government/TEBA wouldn’t entertain any proposals about class size limits or pupil-teacher ratios - ATA asking for 3,000 more teachers was a last ditch effort to try and address class size

As the Smith, Nicolaides and the rest of the UCP inevitably attempt to distance themselves from these sweeping book bans, keep in mind one thing... They wrote the order. So this was either deliberate or they are incompetent. Those are the only two choices. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Well, the list of books being banned from EPSB is appalling. And it's very likely that an author on this list will get their other works pulled too, especially in the absence of teacher librarians. There are books on this list that changed my life. This is what the UCP is taking away from kids.

“The banning of books is a hallmark of censorship, not democracy.” Literature is a lifeline for many students. Through the word, we learn about the world around us. It is time to end this dangerous censorship and promote critical thinking in schools. ccla.org/press-releas...

"Large class sizes, increasing classroom complexity, dwindling supports, and wages that do not account for these challenges or keep pace with inflation remain sticking points between teachers and their employers." #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli teachers.ab.ca/news/teacher...

"To accommodate these students, administration said the school’s library, music room and wellness centre will all be converted into classroom space." This is why teachers voted to strike. And why we should all support them. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

Teachers are struggling to manage complexity in the modern classroom. The Minister is pleased that his government was able to provide more funding for education…but Alberta still has the lowest funding per student in the country.

“Students with disabilities weren't educated in most cases,” says Jack Schneider, professor on education policy at UMass Amherst. “They were turned away, and their families were told that the school didn't have the facilities, the resources to serve their kids.” ➡️ Read more:

The landmark law ushered in an era of inclusion and equity. The current assault on public schools could unravel that progress, leaving students without the support they need.

The 2025 Budget is a disappointment and doesn’t reflect the priorities of Albertans. We see the continued underfunding of healthcare and education. We need more schools in Edmonton-South West and this budget doesn’t account for the building of new schools.
