With BC teachers having served strike notice yesterday, all school
districts around the Province have been establishing contingency plans
when school resumes next week. District #22 here in Vernon is joining other Districts in canceling
the morning recesses at all schools due to a lack of supervisory staff
since teachers are withdrawing their extra curricular duties. School buses will run 15 minutes earlier in the morning and classes
will also be dismissed 15 minutes earlier in the afternoon....so parents
need to be aware of the changes. District bus transporation schedules
will be adjusted to align with earlier dismissal times. As for in the classrooms, Superintendent Bev Rundell says there will be no changes. "Teachers will still be teaching and assessing and evaluating, but
they will not be doing any reports to school based administrators or
district based administrators and they won't be attending any meetings" Rundell says teachers coaching sports teams again is extra
curricular, and it will be up to them if they continue to do those jobs
during the job action. Over 8,350 students will be affected next week, 530 are first time kindergarten kids.
