SD 51's Accessibility Committee is seeking feedback from other interested individuals to better understand the needs of those who may be impacted by a disability that makes it difficult to participate fully and equitably in the opportunities and environments in schools.
The committee will use the feedback to explore accessibility needs across the system, with a goal of helping SD 51 develop a long-term plan to address these concerns.
We are considering disability from a broad lens – not just physical access, but also sensory, cognitive, mental health, learning disabilities, ADHD, and other needs as well.

It is with heavy hearts that we share with our school community that one of our long time leaders and friends has unexpectedly passed away. During his years of service, Bob Chapman was Vice Principal of GFSS, and Principal of Greenwood, CLES, Perley, and Hutton Elementary Schools. He was most known for his kind heart, playful nature, and empathy for children and families. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
This week is School Bus Safety Week, and ASTSBC have teamed up with Global BC to produce an ad that was original made for SD73 (Brake for Buses). We encourage all school districts to share the below link on your School District page to help spread awareness for stopping for the red flashing light. We also have TV commercials running on Global BC & Global News BC1, and digital display ads on Globalnews.ca.
