PGDTA president calls on school board to stop public comments that criticize gender non-conforming students and staff
A number of people wore rainbow flags and rainbow clothing to the School District No. 57 public meeting Tuesday night, in response to anti-LGBTQIA comments made by a member of the public at the previous meeting.
Daryl Beauregard, president of the Prince George District Teacher’s Association , then wrote a letter to the SD57 Board of Education and the Ministry of Education addressing his concerns regarding those comments, as well as concerns over a Christian prayer which was said at the beginning of that meeting.Beauregard spoke to the board regarding the issues he raised in his letter at the Jan. 31 meeting.
Weber responded to Beauregard’s remarks by stating she would address his comment on the Christian prayer. “I have hope we can get to a place where we will not other those who don’t think like us or see things the way we do. Where we can truly celebrate safety and inclusion for all, but we can only do this work together.”
