Take Your MPP to School

May 24, 2023

The “Take your MPP to School” initiative kicked off today with a visit to two Limestone District School Board schools – Napanee District Secondary School and Tamworth Elementary School.

At NDSS, I was floored by the technological prowess of our young generation. I was able to see some intricate coding projects, impressive construction and small engine projects, and so much more. I also looked at one of the only auto body paint rooms in Ontario high schools. It is genuinely impressive to see the range of skills and creativity fostered there.

At Tamworth, I was able to see their structured literacy programs and even a student-led history class! I had valuable conversations with staff and trustees about successes and opportunities. Thank you to Director Krishna Burra, Superintendent Alison McDonnell, Trustee Chair Robin Hutcheon, Tiffany Lloyd – LDSB Trustee for Greater Napanee and Principals Erin Pincivero and Emily Yanch for the tour and for your dedication to excellence in learning. I am excited to take these insights back to Queens Park.
