There's a public meeting at St. Ursula Catholic School in Chatham Wednesday night to talk about the future of Catholic elementary schools in the city.
It's part of an ongoing Pupil Accommodation Review that could lead to the closure of up to six buildings and the creation of two new English program schools.
At this point, there are three options:
Option A: Closing six of the elementary schools and building two new English program schools.
One of the new buildings would be located in north Chatham where students from Our Lady Fatima, St. Agnes, and St. Vincent would be directed to.
The second new building would be in South Chatham where students from Georges P. Vanier, St. Joseph, and St. Ursula would be directed to.
Our Lady Fatima would stay in place and receive students from Monsignor Uyen.
The new schools in North and South Chatham would be expected to open by September 2019.
Option B: Suggests the closure of five school, with the construction of two new English program schools.
Option C: Suggests the closure of four schools and the construction of one new English program school.
At a meeting on November 29, 2016, Pupil Accomodation Review Committee (PARC) members identified Option A as their preferred choice.
While Wednesday night's meeting is open to the public, pre-registration is required.
