Stayner ARC public meetings set

Three public meetings have been scheduled during an accommodation review of three Stayner schools.

The Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB) is undertaking a Pupil Accommodation Review to address enrollment, programming, and facility condition challenges for Stayner Collegiate Institute, Byng Public School (pictured) and Clearview Meadows Elementary School. 

The first public meeting is at Byng Public School on Thursday, Feb. 11, a second meeting is at Clearview Meadows Elementary School on Thursday, Mar. 10, and a final public meeting will be at Stayner Collegiate Institute on Wednesday, April 20.

Special board meeting to hear from delegations will be held on May 24 and a final decision will be made June 9, at the SCDSB education centre in Midhurst. All meetings take place at 7 p.m.

The Accommodation Review Committee (ARC) has been established and is made up of two parent guardians from each affected school as well as two students from each affected secondary school. Members are appointed to represent their school community by school councils and student councils as outlined in the SCDSB Pupil Accommodation Review Policy.
