Elect Charles Menzies -Metro Vancouver Director Electoral Area A: Supporting Effective Leadership in School Board

As residents in the UBC/UEL portions of Electoral Area ‘A’ we are also able to vote for candiadtes to the Vancouver Board of Education. Being able to have a voice and an impact in the Vancouver Board of Education discussions is critically important for our community.

Over the past decade essentially uncontrolled development at UBC and in the UEL has increased the pressure on our two local schools -University Hill Elementary and University Hill Secondary. Both schools are seriously over capacity and many of our more than 1500 school aged children are forced to find school placements outside of our community. This has to stop.
