In the spirit of the holidays, just thought someone from @VSB39 could respond: seriously? This is what our principle at school sent out after learning that students and parents were to send a Xmas card to thank the teachers Wish everyone a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!🎄🎉🎁

Still feeling as strong about this now as I did in 2021...for those running for Vancouver School Board in #vanelxn22 #vanpoli...What is your platform on this? Feel free to reply here. BTW, the original tweet made 128k impressions on this art by @xiaoxuyvr..so many are watching

As an East Van, blue collar household VSB kid who directly benefited from the honours and gifted programs...this phase out is a VERY bad idea "#Vancouver School Board phases out honours programs in high schools" as told by @xiaoxuyvr #vanpoli #bcpoli theglobeandmail.com/canada/british…

Excluding vulnerable families from access also shrinks the program. Hard not to see this as part of an overall @VSB39 "end of life" strategy for MACC. #savemacc


Jessica Wang Reposted

Ensuring equitable access for a vulnerable student population is absolutely a governance issue. #savemacc @VSB39 @janetrfraser @CarmenCho17 @reddyforchange @awong39 @parrott_barb @OliverHanson @Frasergb @estiemgonzalez @fishtron #bced #bcpoli #vanpoli

VSB: Every student deserves access to unique learning opportunities. Parents: My child cannot access your program without bus transportation because I have to work. VSB: Oh I meant students whose parents can drive their kids deserve access to unique learning opportunities.

... and what they've gotten for all of this good citizenry is basically a "Go to hell" from the VSB board chair. Is this what democracy looks like?

@VSB39 opened MACC intake for grade 4 but has designed it to be SO unattractive: ❌ no bussing ⁉️1 class of gr 4-7 ⁉️Only until gr. 6 ⁉️Forfeit spot in current school ❓no solution for gr 7 when MACC ends It’s an impossible choice for families. #savemacc #vanpoli #bcpoli

“Youth in our society don’t have many rights, they’re infantilized” ~BCCLA policy director Meghan McDermott has been demanding Eric Hamber & VSB recognize students rights. Read more on high-school journalists advocating for a student press-freedom bill: ow.ly/5k0t50Jbxpp


Jessica Wang Reposted

Because student journalists always have been - and always will be - real journalists!

The @bccla and @caj have officially sent a letter to Superintendent @hemremmem instructing @VSB39 to comply with the #Charter and amend their administrative procedures that enable censorship of this newspaper. #PressFreedom bccla.org/wp-content/upl… #bced #vanpoli #bcpoli

Another example of a school district using universal screening to dramatically increase equity in gifted ed. Wish @VSB39 would follow evidence-based practices like this. seattletimes.com/education-lab/…


Jessica Wang Reposted

Parents: If the @VSB39 is dragging its feet on identifying your child as gifted or in providing appropriate services, consider a call to your provincial MLA. The Ministry of Education requires districts to identify and serve gifted kids (thread)

We've just heard that Gr 3-6 students can still apply for MACC. Applications submitted by April 25 will be considered first. If spaces remain after those applications are reviewed, a second round of offers will be made in May/June.


Jessica Wang Reposted

The @VSB39 has been making it hard to access a program that they want to eliminate in the name of making it more accessible. Quote below is from a parent trying to get their child considered for MACC:


Jessica Wang Reposted

Thanks @VSB39 for changing course & resuming intake for grade 4 MACC. But what happens if you don’t share results of testing in time for the application deadline? Show your support for equitable access. DM us to be connected to this family. #vanpoli #bced #savemacc

This will be my focus now. "Democrats have better ideas, better candidates, and a better vision for tomorrow. What they don't have is BETTER MESSAGING and I'm going to try and change that." I will be paying for everything myself and not accepting any donations. Don Winslow
