    Freedom does not mean the right to promote hatred. Flags of Confederacy & the Nazis, & signs attacking transgender & gender non-conforming youth have no place here. These events show us importance of educating about human rights and equity in our schools. #HateHasNoPlaceHere

    Following consultation with some Indigenous community members, flags across LDSB will be flown at half-mast in memory of the 215 children killed as a result of cultural genocide at a residential school in B.C. Our full statement is below. #EveryChildMatters #215Children
    Flags across the Limestone District School Board will be flown at half-mast in memory of the 215 children killed as a result of cultural genocide at a residential school in British Columbia. We extend our sympathies to survivors, families and First Nations communities affected by this unspeakable tragedy. Flags at the Education Centre and all schools will remain lowered for 215 hours (9 days) - one hour for each child whose life was taken - from May 31 to June 8, 2021. The discovery of this mass grave will serve as a difficult reminder for survivors of residential schools and their families, and a reminder of traumas they have endured. We will support students and families who will find this news triggering and are in need of support or resources. Limestone recommits to our important role in educating our school communities about the shameful legacy of residential schools, and the ongoing need for Truth and Reconciliation.
