LCPS and Brooksidestart on different days
BY GARIT
REID
Sentinel Staff
It's back to
school time again,
but for the
Bluewater and
Avon Maitland
School Board
they will be hav-
ing two different
start times:
For students
returning to
school at
Brookside Public
School, they were
back on Sept. 1
and for students at
LCPS, they will
be back on Sept. 8
The decision for
the Bluewater
School Board to
go back after
Labour Day was a
straightforward
process for Alana
Murray, the
superintendent of
secondary educa-
tion for Bluewater
and the chair for
the calender com-
mittee. Basically
with a lot of feed-
back and commu-
nication with the
committee and'
parents, they
decided to put two
of the six profes-
sional days before
*Labour Day caus-
ing no disruption
to families before
the holiday week-
end.
School boards
within the
province have to
be able to fill a
school year with-
in a minimum of
194 school days

between the
months of
September . and
the end of June
and Murray said
this decision was
the right decision
for their board.
The Avon
Maitland School
Board decided to
start on Sept. 1 to.
preserve all of its
professional days
throughout the
school year. Pat
Stanley, the
superintendent of
education for
Avon Maitland,
said it was • the
right option for
their school board
because of many
factors, one being
they bus their stu-
dents together
with students
from Huron -Perth
Catholic School
Board. • Both
school boards
decided through a
planning commit-
tee that the Sept.
1 start time would
be best for .staff
and students.
Another option
was to reduce the
length of the
Christmas holi-
day, but that was-
n't well received.
Sept. 1 was ulti-
m telt' chosen to
preserve the pro-
fessional days
throughout the
school year.
