Fate of Extra-Curricular Activities Still Up in the Air


Talks continue with the local school board and public schools regarding the continuation of extra-curricular activities.

Director of Education for the Keewatin Patricia District School Board Jack McMaster says that despite last weeks announcement by the education minister that contracts will be imposed on teachers, he hopes things can remain as close to normal.

McMaster says it's up to the unions if teachers will continue with voluntary activities.

McMaster says there will be another teleconference on Thursday to get a better idea of the situation.
