Here we are with part two of our series examining school board reforms.

The Ford Government is keen on eliminating trustees from Ontario school boards. As of the recording of this episode, Minister of Education Paul Calandra has removed elected trustees from four school boards in the province. Appointing a supervisor to oversee decision-making at the board level.

In our previous episode, we had Nokha Dakroub explain why she thought trustees ought to be appointed rather than elected in the province.

For this episode, we have Andrea Grebenc, former Chair of the Halton District School Board, to explain why electing our School Board Trustees ought to remain an important part of our democracy. And to help ensure a better education system for all of our children.

Our previous episode with Nokha is here:
