Durham District School Board defers decision on French Immersion
Description
January 22, 2020
Parents at Maple Ridge Public School are cautiously optimistic after the DDSB has deferred a decision to convert a Pickering school to solely French Immersion. The idea was met with major backlash from parents as it could have forced more than 200 students to move to another school.
