Our government is committed to ensuring our schools are optimal learning environments in which students feel safe. Our Action Plan to Address Bullying and Cyberbullying is one of the many ways we are working to achieve this.As always, please remember to take extra caution in and around school zones. Over the summer our government strengthened 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.It has been said that the only day better than today in Saskatchewan, is tomorrow in Saskatchewan. As high school students start to look at their options post-graduation, it is encouraging to see so many furthering their education here at home. This is possible because of the new opportunities a growing Saskatchewan provides. Our government has also provided record support to make post-secondary education more accessible and affordable.
The start of a new school year can bring out a range of emotions. It provides a fresh start for excited parents, students, teachers and support staff. From early-learning to post-secondary, on behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan, I would like to express my appreciation to all those who are helping prepare our children and youth for a bright future in Saskatchewan.
