Posted on 11/17/2015

Cooperative and collaborative relationships between school boards and community organizations contribute to a strong, vibrant and sustainable public education system.

Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board is inviting public input on a new community planning and partnerships procedure, formerly called Facility Partnerships.

Procedure 570: Community Planning and Partnerships, is based on the Ministry of Education Community Planning and Partnerships (CPP) Guideline (pdf), released in March 2015. It links with Board Policy 15: Student Enrolment/School Capacity: Pupil Accommodation Review.

Procedure 570: Community Planning and Partnerships, describes the process for establishing facility partnerships with community organizations in new and existing facilities where students are taught, and for effectively sharing planning information with community organizations, including land use and green space/park planning.

Members of the public are invited to provide input on the revised procedure, in writing, to the Director's Office at [email protected], by Friday, January 8, 2016.
