Safe
school environment is a priority:
The BEA
continues to advocate for safe working environments for all students,
staff, and visitors who use our buildings, and we are anticipating the
report from this summer’s facilities audit. We hope to work with
School
Board Commissioners and administrators to ensure we have 21st
century facilities, including safe and adequate indoor air quality, in
which to implement 21st century teaching and learning. The
future is now, and it depends on our ability to focus on what matters
most – our students. Burlington High School (LEFT)
has been the recent focus of BEA concerns on air quality issues.
