The school board confirmed today that the East-West tradition is officially staying. I am honestly stunned by this result because it only happened because you all stood up for what matters to our students. This belongs entirely to you.

One of North Bay's biggest high school traditions is no other than East-West. A day of the year where schools from the district go head to head in competing for the title of most spirited school. And of course, this event is called East-West because of the intense hockey games between the schools from the East and the schools from the West.


This is a day where all high schools in North Bay and surrounding area come together in friendly competition and fun filled shenanigans.


This petition's intent is to only show to our schools and school boards the importance of East West to the students of the Nipissing District. We want to assure the continuance of East West for years to come.


L’une de nos plus grandes traditions ici à North Bay est East-West. C’est un jour de l’année où toutes les écoles de notre région participent dans un match pour le titre de l’école avec le plus d’esprit. Cette journée est appeler East-West à cause du match d’hockey contre les écoles de East and de West.


C’est une journée où toutes les écoles de notre région viennent ensemble dans une compétition amicale qui est très amusant. Il y a des discussions récentes qui parlent d’arrêter cette tradition.


Signé cette pétition pour démontrer à ton école et à votre conseil scolaire que nous, comme élèves, veut maintenir cette tradition pour plusieurs années à venir.

I really never expected to hit a hundred signatures when I started this. Seeing how much this tradition means to everyone is completely overwhelming and this is all because of you.

I started this because I was worried about losing our tradition, but I never imagined so many people felt the same way. It is entirely because of your signatures that people are finally starting to listen to us. I am just trying to keep up with the messages and will keep you posted on any news from the school board.

My older siblings went and they said it was the best part of high school. Really hope we can keep it alive for the younger grades too!!
