Calling all parents! Education Minister Kelvin Goertzen is asking for parents and students to share their thoughts on what school should look like come fall.

An online survey launched earlier this week attempts to gauge what Manitobans are thinking when it comes to restarting traditional education in a world still impacted by COVID-19. Goertzen says survey participants are asked to indicate their concerns.

0 submissions from students and their parents; a number that is pushed even higher when considering the separate survey they sent out to educators.

The minister calls the response “overwhelming,” “phenomenal,” and “considerably more than we expected.” With such feedback already at their fingertips, Goertzen is certain his team will be able to accurately assess how Manitobans are feeling about the return to classes.
