We acknowledge the land upon which we work is part of the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas. This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which was an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. We further acknowledge that this land is covered by the Between the Lakes Purchase, 1792, between the Crown and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. The City of Hamilton is home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island (North America) and we recognize that we must do more to learn about the rich history of this land so that we can better understand our roles as residents, neighbours, partners and caretakers. We stand in solidarity with murdered and missing Indigenous women, girls, transgender and two-spirit people.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to MPP John Fraser for meeting with Balance Support & Self Care Studios to discuss the critical issue of formal and informal exclusions in Ontario schools.

Every student deserves meaningful access to their education. Too often, disabled and neurodivergent students are told to stay home, placed on reduced schedules, or excluded from school activities due to a lack of resources and staffing.

During our meeting, we shared why a provincial framework designed to bridge the gap between legal rights and real-world practice was long overdue.

Such a framework would include:

β€’ Clear safeguards: Written notices and appeal rights for refusal-to-admit decisions.
β€’ Accountability: Standardized provincial data collection and strict oversight for prolonged exclusions.
β€’ Educational continuity: Ensuring students continue to learn and have a clear, written plan to return to school.

We appreciate MPP Fraser’s time and his commitment to hearing these vital concerns. We look forward to continuing this conversation to ensure Ontario schools provide the documentation, oversight, and supports every student needs to thrive. πŸŽ’βœ¨
