GBE-P1 - Staff and Political Influences and Activities

The Prairie Spirit School Division expects each staff member to be politically non-partisan in the classroom and at other school activities.

The Public Schools Act guarantees the rights of employees to seek nomination or to be a candidate for public office, or support a candidate or political party in a municipal, provincial or federal general election or by-election, and, if elected, to serve in that office.  The legislation further makes provision for appropriate leave of absence.
