We are greatly saddened by the tragedy at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in BC and extend our deepest condolences to the families, staff, students, and community members affected.

ALT We are greatly saddened by the tragedy at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia and extend our deepest condolences to the families, staff, students, and community members affected. Schools are more than buildings. Schools are communities where children and youth spend much of their time learning, growing, and building connections. When something impacts a school community, it impacts us all. We are united in support and hold the Tumbler Ridge community in our thoughts during this extremely difficult time.
