At the special Board of Education meeting on April 28th, the Board heard from district staff, consultants, and the Lum community. As a result of the feedback we heard from community stakeholders and Board members, Board President Gary Lym and Superintendent Sean McPhetridge decided the Board would postpone its decision on Lum to May 23rd, so that more information can be gathered.
Tonight, staff will be reviewing potential enrollment scenarios to continue efforts to inform the public and plan for whatever decision is made on May 23rd.
The public can find up-to-date press releases, FAQs, and meeting information for the situation at Lum Elementary School on the district’s website.
