Ditch the Draft Protest

Caring Parents & Educators across Alberta

It's time to stand together as Albertans to protest the 2021 draft curriculum by showing our government  it's time to DITCH THE DRAFT!

Experts have spoken out loudly that the 2021 draft curriculum will HARM our children and their educational future. School boards have refused to pilot the draft. Teachers have spoken out with a 99% non-confidence vote in the Minister of Education. Yet this government continues to ignore Albertans voices and move forward with plans to implement a draft curriculum that no one wants.On April 2, let&#x27;s stand together across the province to declare it&#x27;s time to #ditchthedraft!You will hear expert speakers talk about the importance of a quality curriculum, how the creation of this draft curriculum is not in students&#x27; best interests, how the 1% piloting of the draft for a few months is insufficient, why the draft needs to be nonpartisan, &amp; rationale for why our children DESERVE the best quality education possible. The 2021 draft curriculum will NOT prepare our children for a bright future. OUR KIDS DESERVE BETTER!Please join us at this respectful, family-friendly protest at various locations across Alberta to collectively stand together in support of #Ditchthedraft.
