This CANNOT HAPPEN!! This school is an important part of our community and our children love it as do the Parents. The Teachers and the Principle are the best i have come across in my 58 yrs. !!! We will NOT LET THIS HAPPEN!!

small schools as assets not liabilities. They offer a family-friendly, community-based model for education which is too precious to lose.

This school should not be closed EVER! It's been apart of the community for years and JBC has so many kids that love it there. I went there 3 years ago and honestly everyone in that building I know would do anything for those kids that go there.

I went to J.B.C as a child, and I don't believe that the school board should shut it down, but as a business major in college, I can understand why it is up for review. Glace Bay's population is decreasing, and our economy is not getting any better. Budget cuts are being made simply because there is no need for extra spending when it is not necessary. I am not bias in any such way, but I am looking at the bigger picture. Hopefully some good news can come this way, shortly.

The community needs this school. Busing kids to save costs is not always an option

I have 2 boys in this school and my wife attended from the day it first opened. It is about time the school board stopped thinking about money and start thinking about the children and their well being.
