Critical thinking starts with getting your facts straight. The mute and block buttons don't change the facts.

Not a private school, and not the same site:

A divisional school is the most common type of school run by school boards (what most people think of as a "public school"). Students are "divided" by geography, religion, and/or native language and are assigned to a default board (not school). A student may choose another board.

Divisional schools do not have to take all students. There are selection criteria and lotteries at divisional schools.

If you don't fund private schools, you will end up violating 1 of these 3 clauses: UDHR 26.3, UNCRC 28.1(a), or UNCRC 29.2.

That's pretty presumptuous.

Alberta has ranked highly since the inception of PISA. What recent reforms do you think would contribute to that? What other factors would you attribute this to?

They are welcome to compete in non-protected categories without a gender check. Gender specific sports fall under a protected class of human rights for which discriminatory checks are allowed: laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/…

Children also have a right to an education, parents have a right to choose where their children receive that education, and individuals have the right to direct educational institutions. Attacking funding of those schools is also an attack on globally recognized human rights.

That's about how much it costs to build a school. Also, students graduate so it should serve more than just 2000 students over the building's lifetime.

Cornwall Alternative School is paid for by the government. Public schools absolutely select for students. Attendance area is selection by the socioeconomic means of what neighbourhoods a student's parents can afford to live in. Charter schools are bound by the same S.33 as public
