At the board's May 19 meeting, Oakville trustee Anthony Danko gave notice of his intention to present a motion requesting the new curriculum's deferral for one year. After last night's recorded vote ended in a tie -- effectively killing the motion -- Board Chair and Burlington trustee Jane Michael chose to break the tie and go on record as opposing Danko's motion. That resulted in a chorus of parents shouting "shame" enveloping the boardroom. see Parents on p.5 Halton Regional Police released this poster inviting Halton elementary schools to take part in a Name the K9 contest to name Halton's new police dog.
