HWDSB Starting Community Conversation to Reimagine HWDSB

ReimagineHWDSB-logoHamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) Trustees are starting a sweeping review of the Board’s vision and focus to better serve students, parents and the greater community.

Reimagine HWDSB will start a community conversation this spring with community forums, focus groups and surveys, so the public can tell HWDSB what it thinks.

“As a newly elected Board of Trustees, we want a fresh vision that our communities expect, our staff require and our students deserve,” Board Chair Todd White said. “To start, we want to hear how we are doing.”

Reimagine HWDSB is a three-part process comprised of Explore, Imagine, Launch steps.

The first step, Explore, will see community forums, focus groups and surveys in spring 2015 to tell the Board how it’s doing. In fall 2015, the Board will move to the Imagine step, where open and honest feedback will create a new vision. Finally, in winter 2016 the public will help Launch a new vision through community events and social media.

Reimagine – Community Invite

The first way for the community to get involved is by attending one of three community sessions:

North Cluster:
Monday, June 1, 2015 – 7 to 9 pm
Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary School, Auditorium
(130 York Boulevard, Hamilton)

South Cluster:
Tuesday, June 2, 2015 – 7 to 9 pm
Sir Allan MacNab Secondary School, Cafeteria
(145 Magnolia Drive, Hamilton)

West Cluster:
Wednesday, June 3, 2015 – 7 to 9 pm
Westdale Secondary School, Auditorium
(700 Main Street West, Hamilton)

Community members are also encouraged to fill out the survey online at www.hwdsb.on.ca/reimagine.

“This is an open invitation for our community to give us open and honest feedback,” White said. “As Trustees, we’re committed to improving the way HWDSB operates. We’re looking forward to creating a fresh vision and focus with the support of our community.”
