Accommodation Review

It begins with you!

In keeping with the Ministry of Education’s recommendation that accommodation reviews focus on a group of schools within a geographic area, Rainbow District School Board has appointed an Accommodation Review Committee for Sudbury South schools, including the following:

Alexander Public School
Algonquin Road Public School
Long Lake Public School
MacLeod Public School
Monetville Public School
R.L. Beattie Public School
Wanup Public School
Lockerby Composite School
Lo-Ellen Park Secondary School


Working in an advisory role, the Accommodation Review Committee will provide to the Board’s Administrative Council recommendations to maximize student learning within the resources available to the Board in keeping with two guiding principles:

1. All students will continue to have access to the best programming possible in quality school facilities; and

2. Surplus space will be reduced.

A number of factors will be considered as part of the review process, including the quality of the learning environment at the school, the range of program offerings, the adequacy of the school’s physical space to support student learning, and the proximity of the school to students. Other factors, such as enrolment, operating costs, and capital needs, will also be considered.

Parents/guardians and the community at large will have an opportunity to provide input as the consultative process unfolds. Decisions will be made with the full involvement of an informed local community based on a broad range of criteria regarding the quality of the learning experience for students. Value to all students will take priority over all other considerations.
