Dear City of Vancouver Mayor & Council,
Re: Olympic Village School Situation
I am writing you regarding the school situation facing Southeast False Creek students, their families, and our community.
Our catchment school has been over-capacity and over-subscribed for many years now. Inaction by the Vancouver School Board and Ministry of Education have resulted in what our community considers a school crisis. Too many families are making the difficult decision to send their child out of our community for school as the local catchment school in not accessible on foot and has a Kindergarten waitlist 65 students long.

Please support our community by advocating for the SEFC Development Plan goal of having a school in our neighbourhood by 2020. Can we have a plan in place by 2020?
We encourage you to visit and meet with our community members to allow you to better understand the situation.
Kind regards,
