School Reviews

From 2008 to 2010, AVRSB completed a long-range planning process to examine the best ways to deliver the public education program in the future. From that process, the Board identified several options, including some possible school closures.

 

As a result, AVRSB is conducting formal review processes for two schools, Annapolis Royal Regional Academy and Newport Station District School, to determine if closures are the most appropriate options. Identification Reports outlining the data, statistics and other information supporting the reasons for considering possible closure of these schools were accepted by the Board at its March 2, 2011 regular meeting.

 

AVRSB understands that changes to schools have an impact on students, families and communities. AVRSB will be following the legislated school review process, which includes a community impact assessment and the formation of a study committee for each school. AVRSB will carefully consider study committee input when making decisions.

 

The links below provide access to reports related to the school review process, information on the school review process, related legislation, and other relevant background information.  There will be a Special Board Meeting on March 21, 2012, 7:00 p.m. at Berwick and District School, at which AVRSB Board members will make decisions regarding school review processes/closures for Annapolis Royal Regional Academy and Newport Station District School.
