Boundary Review: St. Anne (Sarnia) / St. Michael (Bright’s Grove)

On Tuesday, September 27, 2011, a report by the Director of Education was brought to the Board of Trustees regarding a boundary review for the St. Anne (Sarnia) and St. Michael (Bright’s Grove) Catholic School communities. The Board approved the Director’s request for a boundary review and directed that a Boundary Review Committee (BRC) be established.

The BRC will be comprised of three members of the St. Anne Catholic School Community Council and three members of the St. Michael Catholic School Community Council, as selected by the school principals. The committee will be chaired by Superintendent of Education Dr. Frank Leddy and the two principals will act as resources to the committee.

Up to four meetings of the BRC may be required. The following dates and meeting locations have been scheduled: 
 

• November 15, 2011 at St. Michael
• January 17, 2012 at St. Anne
• March 6, 2012 at St. Michael
• April 10, 2012 at St. Anne (Cancelled)

All BRC meetings will be held in public, beginning at 7:00 p.m. Meeting notes will be posted to this web page within ten working days of the meeting date.

Following the final meeting, the BRC will prepare a report to the Board of Trustees. The Director of Education will also prepare a report and Trustees will consider both before making any decisions with respect to any changes to boundaries.

At the Regular Board Meeting of Tuesday, March 27, 2012 the recommendations of the Boundary Review Committee were presented to the Board of Trustees.  The recommendations were accepted with an amendment to the western boundary of St. Michael/eastern boundary of St. Anne.  Trustees also directed that a Full Day Kindergarten program be placed at St. Michael in September 2012, one year ahead of schedule.  All actions of the Board, including a full description of the newly configured boundaries can be viewed or downloaded by clicking here.
