On Monday I visited the Tsawwassen pool and to my amazement it was crowded with school-aged kids making mine and other swimming time not pleasant.
They just had a professional day last Friday and three weeks ago they came back from the Christmas break.
Between holidays, professional, family, snow etc…….. days and as a result there are not may days left in the school year to actually go to school and study.
Canadian schools have a very bad reputation throughout the western world when it comes to the quality of our school system.
This of course is not the students’ fault, but the people in charge of our public school system.
No wonder more and more parents are sending their children to private schools.
