School District Six is breathing a sigh of relief following the Education Minister’s decision regarding recommendations from the Coroner’s Inquest into the deaths of 7 basketball players and a teacher. Roland Haché announced the recommendation to use Class 2B drivers and school buses for extra-curricular trips will not be enforced. Learning Specialist Paul Smith tells CHSJ news this is good for the district because the restrictions would have made it too expensive and difficult to continue many activities.
Smith says money has not been put ahead of safety and that no school vans will be used to transport students–but–parents will be allowed to help shuttle students to and from nearby activities.
