There is harmony between the District 8 Education Council and Enterprise Saint John.
The two groups are now looking at how future partnerships can benefit both organizations. Chair Rob Fowler tells CHSJ News they had a lunch meeting on May 4th and it went very well. He says Enterprise Saint John can help the school district lobby the Provincial Government on education issues.
The meeting came about after Enterprise Saint John chair Bob Manning publicly complained about assessment results at a DEC meeting. Fowler goes on to say sometimes it takes a crisis for people to get on the same page.
