PLEASE NOTE: Discussion about what we believe or think should happen regarding vaccinations is not appropriate at a Board Meeting. We have been asked in our roles as school leaders to encourage vaccination, to provide information and offer whatever support we can to our staff to seek this option. We maintain kindness and compassion for all members of our school community.
