Parents and educators struggle to influence school board decisions on curriculum, safety, and resource allocationParents, teachers, and community members in Vancouver feel disconnected from school board decision-making processes, lacking clear channels to advocate for their children's educational needs, safety concerns, and equitable resource distribution. Current engagement mechanisms are ineffective, opaque, or inaccessible, leaving stakeholders frustrated and unable to drive meaningful change in their local schools.
