The Community Schools Alliance believes that a better system is needed to address the educational facility needs in Ontario's communities.

It was great to speak with education leaders from across the province today to discuss opportunities to make it easier to build new schools faster. A streamlined municipal land use approvals process would help us build complete communities and ensure students have access to schools close to home.

A statement from our President @CathyAbraham - The right schools in the right places: why we're asking the government to lift the moratorium on school reviews. Full text at opsba.org/right-schools-…. #onted #onpoli

Q11. Will the Rural and Northern Education Fund be increased to $50M to meet needs? A11. Min. @Sflecce says the moratorium on school closures will continue. He says the $50M request has been received, it will be considered. Outlines investments. #AMO2022

Our government is firmly committed to supporting schools in rural Ontario & the students that depend on them. Positive chat with @csaont, along with MPPs @MayorKHolland & @JAYakabuski to build modern schools & get kids back to class in small towns & villages across the province.








We have new details to share, including streaming information and our list of panelists, for 'Education Equity for Rural Students' - a rural education symposium. LINK: sdgcounties.ca/rural-educatio…





Good talk on @CBCLondon with @shawnwlewis , should talk to @afclark82 as well, and @csaont This is a province wide issue affecting large and small communities. @AndrewLuptonCBC

Great to talk to you about this today @afclark82 with @kellyelliottmcm These types of problems are the result of a broken education capital funding model. @csaont has been lobbying on this for years. Children and community first.
