Considering they closed Sir Adam Beck, Wheable, Thames and Ross high schools over the last 40 years and built a number of new Catholic high schools during the same time period, not that strange at all. In fact prior to the last population surge that happened after 2015 the projections for school aged kids in the public board was to see 15,000 fewer kids in the public board across all grades. Still to this day we have the boards and province afraid to close under capacity schools while schools in new younger demographic neighbourhoods have playgrounds full of portable classrooms to meet the union demands for smaller class sizes. You now have inner city school busing in order to reduce the pressures and keep enrolment up in under capacity buildings. Just of cascade of bags of money being thrown at the domino effect of bad decisions and management and lack of courage and planning.
In other words SNAFU and FUBAR are the operating principles.
