Dear MPP Gill,
Did you know there is $30.9-million of disrepair in the publicly funded schools in your riding of Milton?
We know that you did not sign the Fix Our Schools Pledge during the 2018 election. However, as we head into another provincial election in June 2022, we expect that safe, healthy, well-maintained school buildings will be a priority for all parties.
We wanted to share the following details of disrepair each school in your riding in the hope that this detailed information would underscore the importance of developing standards of good repair for Ontario schools and also the importance of providing the adequate, stable provincial funding to school boards required for them to meet those new standards and eliminate the $16.8-billion repair backlog (as of June 2021) that plagues Ontario’s schools.

| Bishop P.F. Reding CSS | $ 5,443,856.00 |

School conditions matter. They impact student learning, attendance, and health, and must be a higher priority for our next provincial government than they have been with the current Ford government.
PLEASE NOTE: Fix Our Schools is relying on the most recent disrepair data provided by the Ministry of Education in Fall 2017 and has mapped postal codes provided by the Ministry for each school to riding postal code information from a third party. Therefore, it is possible that there may be small errors in the data provided here and we would be grateful if community members would contact us with any errors.
