In April, hundreds of parents wrote to VSB trustees about the lack of funding for inclusive education, as part of a DPAC letter campaign. In response, ABC trustees are trying to shut down DPAC’s ability to communicate with them. No wonder parents in Vancouver are so disheartened. #vsb #bced
Text of a proposed motion:
THAT the Board direct the Chair to write to the Vancouver District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC) | Executive to express concerns over disruptions caused by the manner of communications being sent from
DPAC to trustees, including the sending of mass form-letters from the administration emails;
AND FURTHER THAT the Board direct the Chair to write to the DPAC Executive with respect to the Board's gagement processes with DPAC within the scope of DPAC's statutory mandate;
AND FURTHER THAT the matter of developing and/or updating guidelines for respectful and non-sruptive stakeholder communications be referred to the Policy and Governance Committee for consideration.

7. Deleting the tweet was a good start. Now do this:
 🔹 Apologize to every parent who emailed you— publicly & by email
 reply. 🔹 Apologize to DPAC
 🔹 Meet with the Inclusive Ed Working Group
 🔹 Listen. Collaborate. Advocate. /8

Measles is on the rise in North America, which increases unvaccinated people’s risk of being exposed to the disease. If you can’t find an immunization record, speak with a family doctor to determine next steps. @michellegamage.bsky.social reports.

That makes the BCCDC ‘quite worried.’ How to check if you’re protected.
