Trustees Meet Education Minister


Trustees with the Northwest Catholic District School Board got a recent opportunity to hear from province's education Minister.

Board Chair Anne-Marie Fitzegerald says Leona Dombrowsky spoke recently at a conference in Toronto.

"Minister Dombrowsky shared with us that the focus of the McGuinty government's focus will be on student achievement," says Fitzgerald. "And they're very excited about the response to the full-day every-day junior and senior kindergarten program."

Fitzgerald says based on the Minister's comments, the board is moving in the right direction with respect to student achievement.
