On December 10th, we observe Human Rights Day, honouring the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations in 1948. This day reminds us of the importance of upholding dignity, equality, and justice for all people, everywhere.
At the Lambton Kent District School Board, we are dedicated to fostering a learning environment that promotes respect, inclusion, and the protection of human rights. On this day, we encourage our community to reflect on the value of human rights and continue working toward a world where everyone is treated with fairness and respect.
On December 6th, we observe the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, marking the tragic 1989 École Polytechnique massacre. This day is an opportunity to honour the lives lost and raise awareness about the ongoing issue of gender-based violence.
At the Lambton Kent District School Board, we are committed to creating a safe, respectful environment for all. Together, let’s reflect, remember, and take action toward ending violence against women in our community.
On December 3rd, LKDSB recognizes the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Let’s reflect on the importance of inclusion, accessibility, and celebrating the diverse abilities in our schools and community. Together, we can create a more inclusive world!
This week marks Bullying Awareness & Prevention Week throughout LKDSB.
Everyone has a part to play in ending bullying. We urge staff, students, and families to dedicate some time this week to understand the different forms of bullying, recognize the signs that a child might be experiencing bullying, and learn how to maintain a bully-free environment in our school communities.

On Indigenous Veterans Day, we acknowledge the strength and sacrifice of Indigenous peoples who have served in Canada’s military.
Indigenous veterans have a long history of protecting this land. The Indigenous Nations have always fought to protect the next seven generations of all people. The protection for sustainability also includes the land, air, and all water.
Indigenous soldiers have faced the dual challenges of defending a nation that has historically oppressed them, while also holding deep ties to the land and their cultural identities. Their contributions remind us that resistance and resilience go hand in hand.
At LKDSB, we honour their legacy by listening to their stories, educating ourselves, and standing in solidarity with Indigenous veterans and their communities. Today, we recognize their sacrifices and ensure they are never forgotten.
🏫At Lambton Kent District School Board, we are making significant investments to meet the needs of our growing communities. These projects will ensure that students across our district have access to high-quality learning environments.
