Dear MPP Anand,
Did you know there is $92-million of disrepair in the publicly funded schools in your riding of Mississauga-Malton?
In 2018 MPP Anand signed the Fix Our Schools Pledge to create a Standard of Good Repair for Ontario schools
We wanted to share the following details of disrepair in 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 $15.9-billion repair backlog that plagues Ontario’s schools:

We commend you for personally signing the Fix Our Schools Pledge leading up to the June 2018 provincial election and ask that you and your government please prioritize schools as critical infrastructure. Please take the steps necessary to ensure that the disrepair in all of Ontario’s publicly funded schools is eliminated and that schools are safe, healthy, well-maintained buildings that provide environments conducive to learning and working. Please also note that the disrepair data we are relying upon is now two years old and must be updated and shared publicly.
We look forward to hearing back from you with details on your plan to Fix Ontario’s Schools and with details on when your government will update and release FCI/Disrepair data for all publicly funded schools in Ontario.
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.
