On Thursday, April 27th, Mayor John Higham hosted a public gathering at Sackville Town Hall that focused on the idea of Sackville as a learning community, based on the ideas brought forward by Sackville Schools 2020 over the past 18 months.
Sackville as an Integrated Learning Community: How do we get there?
Are you interested in education in Sackville? Please join the Mayor of Sackville on Thursday, April 27 for a public discussion about education. This event will focus on NB's 10-Yr Education plan and what that means for Sackville's schools. Key speakers include Chris Treadwell, Assistant Deputy Minister of Education and Early Childhood Development, and Gregg Ingersoll, Anglophone East School District Superintendent.
What If and What If and I Wonder? Hmmm...
Engaging the Public in Public Education
A vision of community hub schools with innovative curriculum developments and delivery is not some fantastical dream. Here in Sackville and across the province, educators are beginning the shift toward experiential learning and outdoor education. We must celebrate it, systematize it, and facilitate more movement toward a 21st century education to prepare our children for a changing world.

Moving forward with a review of Sackville's schools
Leading from the Middle…. the power of our teachers and principals
It takes leadership throughout the education system to allow for authentic learning to take place. That is why leadership must occur at the top, through the Minister and the Department of Education, in the middle at the school district and school principal levels, and at the local level, where we must respect and work with the judgement and experience of our teachers.
