Hastings And Prince Edward District School Board

My old public school.

A classmate of my daughter suddenly died at the age of 12. The school did nothing to help the students except for having a councillor on hand for a few days. When it came time for grad the students wanted to finally get a chance to memorialize her. It was forbidden. Several parents called the board and asked for a group meeting about this. The meeting was denied and the board felt it was appropriate to not memorialize this child. Their policy states that if a child is memorialized it may cause another child to be sad and they wouldn't have councillors available at grad. In the end the students and the community memorialized her at grad anyway despite the fact that it wasn't allowed. It was a horrible experience dealing with this for all of those involved.

Horrible school board. Does not care about the children and the bullying they go through. I’ve stopped kids from being beat up on school property while teachers watch and go into the school and close the doors. I’ve called the board left so many messages and they refuse to call me back. What will it take for this school board to do more about the bully? Disgusted parent here at this school board. Can not wait till I get my child out of this board

Great bunch of guys in the IT department

Mr. David Corbett kept bullying me.He is really mean to non white students.Mr. Crawford and Lambert were nice compared to Corbett but always swearing and making fun of foreigners.Other teachers were really nice to me.

Great place to learn

I asked for the virtual school principal to call me back LAST WEEK. Still no call. They clearly do not care about students.
