It's unfortunate that the equipment was damaged during removal. It would be really nice to have new equipment for the children to play .

The School Board needs to stop developing road blocks, red tape and excuses. There are grants specific to this type of thing and the board needs to make this a priority and follow through on the contract obligations.

This decision not only deprives the students of a fun and safe area to play, but it also sets a very poor example for them. This decision says that promises don't need to be kept. Is this what the Board wants to teach children?

The decision that has been made is ridiculous. Being a previous student myself, kids on the playground already had trouble finding things to do at recess. I do hope that they revoke this decision, for it is critical that kids be active during the day.

I am a grandparent of three children at this school. The history I have been told is very distressing. The principal and Board are obligated to keep their promises.

Just not right. Other school boards step up and the kids deserve better.

What a shameful example to our children. So much for the Board's vision: Nurturing faith, illuminating minds, inspiring hearts, and empowering hands -
we are working together to transform our world.
You are doing the complete opposite.

Social & physical development are every bit as important as education in our schools......not to mention fun at recess. The kids need this equipment! It's a no-brainer!....... and a lesson in compromise if we can make this work.

What a terrible example for our children! Perhaps the students could teach you the meaning of the word "agreement". Shame...

the students of st Mary's school do not deserve to have their playground equipment removed by the school board with no reimbursement.
