Recently, there was a news report on CTV News about a WCI student's parent who was against the idea of the WCI Grad Buddy Program. The students at WCI really believe that this is a great program to get to know others, and for the younger students to learn the ropes. The money raised also goes towards giving the Grads a gift at the end of the year and making their final year at WCI better. This program is completely optional and if you have any issues with it, the solution is simple. Do not participate. If it is an issue with your parents, that is for you and your parents to figure out, not to remove the whole program and ruin it for other students. Anyone who enjoys the Grad Buddy Program can sign this petition to show your support.

The feedback from students is pouring in and it is clear this program is essential for our school culture. I am drafting a formal proposal for the administration to outline exactly why we must keep this tradition. Email your local school board representative today and tell them why the Grad Buddy Program matters to you.

The momentum behind this program shows how much our community values these traditions. Post the link to your Facebook feed right now to keep this energy moving. Email your school representative today and tell them why the Grad Buddy Program must stay.

Ridiculous. Let the kids have some fun before they graduate. WCI admin needs to grow a backbone.

This program helped me so much when I was in grade 9. Why ruin it for everyone else just because one parent is bitter?
