The Strait Regional Centre for Education’s executive director Paul Landry says the SRCE is launching several initiatives as a new school year gets underway.
Landry says preparations for a successful return to school year have gone very well. He says the focus will remain on working together to support student achievement, and success with an emphasis on literacy, mathematics and student well-being.
Landry says as a result of the changes to the school lunch program, all students from pre-primary to Grade 12 will have access to nutritious and affordable lunches every day this school year.
Landry says there were some minor renovations to local schools. He says SAERC had electrical upgrades, and kitchens at several schools had improvements to accommodate the introduction of school lunch programs. There was also a library renovation and classroom upgrades at HM MacDonald Elementary School.
