More controvery hangs over the board of trustees for Mountainview School Division.

At their regular board meeting on Monday night, members of the oversight panel appointed by the provincial government to help guide the local board walked out of the meeting following the introduction of a motion to limit the panel's ability to participate in their meetings. 

Yesterday, a day after the meeting, the board of trustees issued what they called "An Important Announcement", stated that they were "raising serious concerns over the lack of response from the Minister of Education, and the unwillingness of the appointed oversight panel to collaborate without undermining local governance."

In another move during Monday night's meeting, the board approved a motion that adopts a procedure to permit the flying of only federal and provincial flags, or flags featuring school logos, on school property.
