Candidates Forum at KO
This week our municipal candidates came to KO to explain to our Intermediate students a bit about local politics. Elections provide students with real-world lessons about different levels of government, which is part of the Social Studies curriculum.
Our intermediate students will participate in a "mock vote" election, run by Student Vote - an organization that aims to engage students in civic education by "providing opportunities for students to experience their democracy first-hand rather than reading about it in a textbook."
Thank you to all of the candidates that took the time out of their busy schedules to come and meet our students.
