Schools must be safe and welcoming spaces for all members of the community. As proud Canadians and proud Nova Scotians, teachers remain committed to fostering inclusivity, cultural respect, and belonging in our schools. #InclusiveEducation #SafeSchools #NSTU

Minister Maguire was responsive to our concerns, and it was clear from our discussion that he was initially unaware of the decision made by the SSRCE. After raising concerns, I appreciate the Minister’s responsiveness and swift action to correct it.

N.S. education minister says schools expected to fly diverse flags | CBC News Brendan Maguire says he will make it clear to South Shore school officials that a directive to remove any flag other than the Canadian and Nova Scotian flags must be reversed.

I was pleased to see the government act quickly to reverse the South Shore Regional Centre for Education’s decision to remove flags representing inclusive groups from public display.

As educators, we have a responsibility to foster anti-racist classrooms and schools where every student feels safe, valued, and empowered.

Today, the @nsteachersunion.bsky.social #NSTU recognizes the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, a crucial reminder of the ongoing fight against racism and the need to uphold equity, inclusion, and human rights for all. #FightRacism

International Women’s Day poster - “Accelerate Action”

Happy #internationalwomensday! Didn’t know it was today? That might be because Apple and Google removed it from their calendars. A stark reminder of why it continues to be important to fight for the rights of ALL people.

To all the women in education thank you for being role models, mentors, and changemakers. Your impact is immeasurable.

Through their dedication, these educators break barriers and help their students see their own limitless potential. They encourage young women to dream big, challenge stereotypes, and shape a future where every girl can succeed in any path she chooses.

On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate the incredible female teachers and specialists who empower, support, and uplift young women every day.
