Mental Health & Well-Being
May 31, 2021 -- This past weekend, we learned the tragic news that new forensic technology had located the remains of 215 children on the grounds of the Kamloops, British Columbia, Indian Residential School. We have lowered all flags across the Division to show our respect.
On behalf of Regina Public Schools, Trustees of the Regina Board of Education, its employees, students and families we offer our deepest condolences to the B.C. Nation of Tk’emlúps te Secwe’pemc (Kamloops Indian Band), to Chief Rosanne Casimir, and to all Indigenous families who have felt personal and family loss and continued intergenerational trauma.
MAY 28, 2021 -- Throughout Saskatchewan, June is known as Gender and Sexual Diversity Pride Month! It is a time when the world’s 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and allies come together to celebrate acceptance, human rights and diversity.
In Regina Public Schools, it is important that we demonstrate our Shared Values that include belonging and respect. As a school division, we are committed to ensuring that schools and workplaces are inclusive and protected environments where 2SLGBTQIA+ staff, students, families and allies feel included, protected and respected.

MAY 26, 2021 -- Connections...when someone reaches out to you, how you react can make a difference to the strength of your connection.
Responding in a positive way to show acceptance, agreement and encouragement of an individual’s efforts is important (i.e. “I always feel your support.”).
