Bolton C. Falby P.S.Great Staff, many whom give it their all each day. Lot of teachers that honestly want the best for their students. Amazing support staff (EAs, ECEs, Secretaries, and Custodians). They are the most important and vital part of the success of the students. Definitely not enough support staff (Secretaries, EAs and Custodians). Those staff members are constantly running around trying to facilitate 25 tasks at once. Worried about what will happen as this school grows to over 1000 students. With the right funding levels, this school could provide the best support, but with reductions in funding, not sure what the future will hold.

Kindergarten Classrooms Are in Crisis—and No One Is Talking About It
I work in a kindergarten classroom with 26 children, one teacher, one ECE, and myself—the only Educational Assistant. Two of those children have special needs that require constant, individualized support.
But there’s only one of me.
Every day, we face moments of chaos and crisis. Children are being hurt. Educators are being hit, bitten, scratched, and spat on. Staff are going on medical leave from stress and injury. ECEs are being pulled away from their role to fill gaps meant for a second EA. The classroom becomes unstable. Learning is disrupted. The environment becomes unsafe—for everyone.
We are not okay.
In the past, EAs were assigned one-on-one to students with high needs. Today, we are being stretched thin—expected to do the work of two or three people without backup.
This is not just my story. This is happening in schools across the province.
The system is failing our children and burning out our educators. I am calling on the media, the public, and the government to pay attention. We need:
One-to-one EA support for children with special needs
Safe classrooms for students and staff
Respect for the professional role of EAs and ECEs
A system that protects—not exploits—the people who care for our youngest learners
This is a crisis. And silence is no longer an option.

St. Anne Catholic SchoolAs a teacher at St. Anne, I am lucky to work with many exceptional educators including our administration. Our school population has grown exponentially over these last two years, and throughout these changes, our administration has welcomed families and supported staff with this growth. Our admin are always outside on supervision and visible in the halls and classrooms making it a point to know student’s names and greet each with a smile. Our administrators treat our students with respect and kindness, and promote an environment where educators are supported to do the same. In such a big school with so many staff and students it can be difficult to create community but I feel this is a priority for administration and they have done a great job.
