KGI-P0 - Relations with Political Parties

Representatives from recognized political parties are permitted to meet with high school students during the period of an election campaign, provided attendance is voluntary and all recognized political parties are informed that they also have the opportunity.  No political advertising is permitted on school property or in school premises, with the exception of material referring to the meetings.

The Premier of Manitoba or the Prime Minister of Canada will be welcome to speak to the student body or to a class.

Elected divisional MLAs and MPs, as well as local government Division area officials, may be invited as guests to school functions such as graduations, openings or concerts, as representatives of their government rather than of a political party.  They also may be invited to a specific class situation where the role of government is the topic, and where their comments are appropriate to current curriculum study.  The Principal’s approval is necessary.  The Superintendent will be advised.
