yes they should be mandatory because we can save more live and stop people from passing away at a really young age. Those people still have a long and big life still ahead to come!

This needs to happen. It's more important than a smart board.

My children believe there should be one in their school, as do I. I am glad to see they feel it is important as well.. so if It makes sense toy children under 10 years old.. it should make sense to the Board

A family from a neighbouring community lost their child in our community. Please let this be a wake up call that we need AED's availible incase of an emergency. I wish we had one in place before Andrews emergency. Please let every school have one before a tragic event

As a mother to a child who has had a heart transplant, I feel that having AED's in our schools is of the utmost importance. The heart disease that my daughter was born with and that runs in my family, is often the one our young athletes are discovered to have when they suffer cardiac arrest on the playing field. Don't let our children die because we don't have a simple machine onsite at our schools.

I have lived through an evening when a young life could not be saved on a sports field at a TVDSB school because there was no AED on site. I wouldn't want anyone else to live through that. Get them everywhere!
