Yes, 1 arn one of the. many parents whose children ..ýýare affected by the'boundaries that the board has deemed necessary i order te populate a school that neyer should be built. My children have gone te Pringle Creek Public School since their verylirst day in the. education system. I volunteered every week for five years, helping ,te fundraise, working in -the classrom and office and running the pizza lunches. I stepped away from volunteering as much of my time two years' ago because of comritmnents elsewhere, but I had felt that I had given the school ail that I could. Now, as thanks, my chldren are being given their pink slips. But wait..my eldest can staý tofinieh his s chooling because'of the. grandfather clause. Where does that leave my daughter who will be entering Grade 5? Apparently, she is not welcome. She will have. to go to the new school. Since when is a school board allowed te split up a family? My husband -and 1 will not permit this to happen. I will demand that rny cldren remain in tii. same school until thi. natural separation takes place wiien my son becomes a high school student. I need him toe there for her, just ini case. - There are, over 80 cross- boundary children at Pringle Creek. That means- over 80 chuldren that shouldn't be there. That means over 80 chilciren taking up our spots. The board would not commit themselves te stop these 8O-pus children frorn staying. after. our chldren are forced out. Tii. boar-d says they will ot honour our cross-boundary forms. Do-es that, mean children from Oshiawa and elsewýhere i hitby "are more desirabie students than' our childen? It sure appears s0.
