School Boards ready for First Day of Classes

There may be some bitter feelings headed into the new school year but the Keewatin-Patricia District School Board is staying the course.

The province remains locked in a bitter dispute with its teachers.

Director of Education Jack McMaster says staff are focused on learning and student achievement.

All kids from grade 4 to 12 will have netbooks and kids from junior kindergarten to grade 3 will have I-Pad pods in each classroom at a 4 to 1 ratio.
