March 2023: Update from Superintendent Dhillon

Dear Alouette families,

I’m writing to let you know that BC Cancer has completed its investigation into the incidence of breast cancer diagnoses at Alouette Elementary and has shared with us its findings.

I am pleased to report that the findings show that, “Compared to the rate of breast cancer in the BC population, there is no evidence, based on the information provided […], that there is a meaningful difference in the risk of breast cancer among the Alouette Cohort.” Review full BC Cancer Report

I know that this has been a challenging time for the school community and hope that the findings of the assessment conducted by BC Cancer will bring some much-needed peace of mind.

Sincerely,
Harry Dhillon
Superintendent of Schools
