School Trustees have yet to vote on the new funding but it is highly unlikely that they would turn down the offer.

When I talked to School District 53 Chair Marieze Tarr this morning

“I am ecstatic. I hope all goes well today at our meeting.”

Tarr was quick to make the statement that she is happy the school will remain open but there are challenges in the future for upgrading, maintenance and improvements to OSS.

“Government policy of the past has put us in this situation – which is really not fair to the community of Osoyoos or the elected school trustees.”
