PRSD Statement Regarding Voluntary Masking
The Peace River School Division is committed to supporting students who wish to continue to wear masks within their schools and classrooms. PRSD believes that every student should feel comfortable and safe while they learn and interact with their peers and teachers. All educational staff and administrators are encouraging students to do what they feel is safest for their health and education.
PRSD will not tolerate any bullying or intimidation that is directed towards those who continue to wear masks in schools. Bullying under any circumstance is unacceptable and will be dealt with immediately and promptly at each school site. Incidents are to be reported to school principals if they do occur and matters will be resolved as quickly as possible.
PRSD strives to provide a safe and caring environment for ALL students and is dedicated to promoting kind, friendly behaviours among all student bodies. PRSD will continue to facilitate and create school atmospheres that benefit all students and their overall well being.
Sincerely,
Adam Murray
Superintendent of Schools
