From the Vancouver Sun:
“Vancouver’s high cost of housing is being cited as the major reason families are pulling their kids out of schools, a new survey from the Vancouver school board shows.
The purpose of the report is to pinpoint the cause of the Vancouver School District’s declining student enrolments.
In each of the past three years, the district has had a net loss of between 600 and 700 students, the report shows. A typical elementary school in Vancouver has around 300 children.”
