St John was put at the top of the list for a new school by the Toronto Catholic District School Board last night.
A new school is not yet a sure thing; the Ministry must approve the “business case” for it. WIth luck, Dave Bennett says, they will announce funding before the end of next month.
We are very excited about the announcement, now we need to ensure the funding is for a new school and not an addition.
Let’s hope that if this school is actually built, that people don’t have blinders on and give credit to Nunziata and Albanese. It was the grassroots work by the community that has brought it to this point.
Kudoos to Dave Bennett and the folks at St. John’s for getting so far……and fighting the good fight! Good luck with the next step.
