Welcome back to a new school year! We at the HWDSB hope you had a wonderful summer with your family and friends.
It is our hope that you can enjoy education updates through the Flamborough E-News as well as through your school and local newspaper. Parental involvement and engagement in education are very important to us and we invite you to be part of the decision making process.
Last year saw the formation of the Waterdown Education (WE) Group and together we were able to formulate the Preferred Vision of education in Waterdown. This vision included 4 new elementary schools (New A.A. Greenleaf, Upcountry Estates, New Guy Brown and eventually Waterdown South) as well as an immediate high school addition and eventual campus site. Rest assured that this vision is now with the Ministry of Education for funding approval of growth area schools and Board staff are actively pursuing potential school sites. We are expecting to hear back from the Ministry by the end of October about all of our growth area schools across Hamilton.
Trustees will be updated on a lot of summer issues over the next few weeks so as the information becomes public I will endeavour to keep you informed as we move through the school year.
I can be reached at karen.turkstra@hwdsb.on.ca or 905-515-8726. For our students!!
