Tuesday's meeting where parents and council participated in a discussion, with
one of our trustees, on the government’s LGBTQ policy.
We the Raymond

to
request an emergency resolution that
“Raymond Elementary School Council opposes the Gender Identities
and Expressions Guidelines as currently written. It is our request that the
Government of Alberta; document titled “Guidelines for Best Practices: Creating
Learning Environments that Respect Diverse Sexual Orientations, Gender
Identities and Gender Expressions” be further reviewed and brought to public
