We the parents and caregivers of Division 6 at Ecole North Oyster implore you, NLPS SD 68, to take the needs of this classroom with the utmost consideration and urgency.

To date, this classroom has been staffed with the vice principle, various school staff and TOCs. The inconsistency has had negative impacts on both academic progression and overall student mental health. To put this into perspective, a TOC held parent interviews, not a regular staff member.

We were recently informed by the school that there would be 2 regular teachers hired to cover this class for the remainder of the school year. It has come to light that this information was not accurate; and in fact only 1 day/week has been contracted for this classroom. The remaining 4 days will be covered by TOCs.

The current TOC, Rebecca Kay, has been the only constant this class has known as she has been teaching in it a few days weekly since the start of the school year. Is there not a simple solution in hiring Rebecca Kay for the remainder of the year to support these students?

With our children's academic success and mental health at the core of this issue, we ask you to address and take action on this matter immediately. We are looking for assurance that there will be continuity and consistency in this classroom.

Respectfully,

Parents and guardians of student in Division 6, Ecole North Oyster, SD 68
