Building Better Schools and Onsite AQ Course

Building Better Schools: Smaller Classes Mean More Time For Every Child

This postcard addressed to the Education Minister provides an opportunity to engage parents and community members about the importance of class size and the one-on-one time every ETFO member spends with students. Your package contains one postcard per member in the school. 

The challenge to members is to use this as a prompt to engage a supportive parent or community member. On the BuildingBetterSchools.ca website anyone can also send an email version of the postcard to their own MPP as well as the Education Minister. 

For more information, please contact James Taylor, extension 2337, jtaylor@etfo.ca, at the provincial office.
