Back to School, Building a Better Quality of Life
The new school year can be an exciting time for parents, students, teachers and support staff. On behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan, I want to express my appreciation to all those who are helping prepare our children for the future.
It is a priority of our government to ensure schools are optimal learning environments in which students feel safe. Our Action Plan to Address Bullying and Cyberbullying (which can be found online at saskatchewan.ca) is one way we are working to achieve this.
In all the excitement the back to school season brings, please remember to watch out for exuberant children making their way to and from school. Over the summer our government introduced significant changes to traffic safety laws in an effort to keep all of us, including our children, safe. Please be careful and have a great start to the school year!
As our readers head out to a variety of events and errands on the last long weekend of the summer, I invite them to check out the Highway Hotline's latest available road conditions at saskatchewan.ca/highwayhotline.
