The new Anglophone South School District holding its first public meeting since the merger of Districts 6,8 and 10.
Rob Fowler, who chaired the District 8 Education Council has been elected to chair the new school district and says it’s time we brought the trades back into the schools.
Fowler says a meeting was held recently with Deputy Mayor Shelley Rinehart to see where schools fit into Saint John’s true growth strategy.
The former chair of the District 6 Education Council, Roger Nesbitt was elected as vice-chair of the new school district which was told students will begin returning to schools on the Wednesday after Labour Day but for many it will be a staggered start depending on what grade you’re in.
