OLV Jr & Sr School Consolidation -

To:  Ontario Ministry of Education

We are the parents, students, staff and community stakeholders for Our Lady of Victory Jr & Sr elementary schools in Fort Erie, Ontario, part of the Niagara Catholic District School Board (NCDSB) family.





This petition is being circulated in paper and electronically, to collect signatures for submission to our School Board, our town Councilor and Mayor, our Provincial Member of Parliament and the Minister of Education to advocate the replacement of our Senior School with consolidation of our Junior School.





This is in support of the NCDSB application to the Ministry of Education for OLV Senior (Gr. 5-8) Elementary School replacement and consolidation with the Junior (J.K.- Gr. 4) Elementary School.





It is our registered desire to see excellence in our Catholic elementary school. The cost to address and repair the Senior School is beyond the 80% mark per Provincial Ministry of Education guidelines, making it a prime candidate for replacement.





OLV Elementary School is crucial to the social fabric of our community. It provides the foundation for the education of our children, draws families to settle and participate in our community, and enables means for extended local, regional and provincial social services to the community.





Niagara Catholic District School Board have excellent elementary and secondary schools in our region and we want this high standard of teaching and learning to be supported and continued at Our Lady of Victory in Fort Erie. An investment in the replacement School facility is overdue and most urgently required if we are to have quality education for our children and an active participant in the life and continued growth of our community.





“Our children’s future is theirs to create”





“Their future education is ours to protect”





Please voice your opinions and support for a commitment to the replacement of OLV Senior with consolidation of the Junior School to provide the quality education for our children to enable their success for their future, and ours.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
