We prefer and support the existing faith based education system in Morinville and Legal, AB.

If the majority of people in this region have these values, then why must we give up these values to those few who do not value them. Is it possible that their education needs could be accomodated else where. I feel that the few are influencing decisions for the many.

More so it is a minority of parents acting out of pride and egotism. If public school is better for the children then lets look objectively at facts, what do they offer that is so much better than a Catholic/Christian system. There is a negligence here that seeks to say " my way is best simply because its my way", no one is looking at the implications a public secular education will have for our children long term

I see this dispute as pride vs. value issue rather than actually looking out for the needs of our children and community. Many adults fighting for a new system are putting their prideful views ahead of what is really necessary for childhood development. We should work on strengthening what we already have rather than adding more confusion

The secular point of view is presented in the school as well as most of the media. A Christian centered school gives a more fair weight to that point of view.

Moreover, both towns were founded on a Catholic basis. To be sure, abandoning the Lord as the foundation for our education system is an outright insult to our forefathers. At any rate, parents and students have the right to decide for themselves. There is no offence in presenting a religious platform in schools, being that people can accept/reject what is presented

I attended the Morinville schools (Vanier, Primeau, MCHS) from grade 2 through graduation, and I found nothing discriminatory to be taking place there. The evolutionary biology model was taught (counter any faith-based model I've heard of creation), and that is just one example. Feel free to contact me for more details or examples. Claiming an unfair or a biased current schooling system is ludicrous.

History is extremely important, current issues are extremely important. All sides of the concern should be explained to all who are listening.
We have to remember the children, the choices , the community. We all want the best for the community, to reach those goals discussion needs to be had. I am proud of the Morinville /Legal/Cardiff /Sturgeon parents and students who are engaging in the conversation.

If you compare the atmosphere, opportunities, care, and experiences to those of other schools, there is no denying that Morinville schools hold high standards when it comes to providing their educational and developmental services to the youth in our community, as well as to the community itself. To take away the values that they have been built on and made them what they are today would be unwise and harmful to our community.
