Request for proposals comes after Greater Victoria School District told the Rogers Society, which currently provides care, that it must go by the end of the school year
The Greater Victoria School Board says it’s committed to finding a new child-care provider for a building next to Rogers Elementary before spring break, but the group now offering services there said it still doesn’t know why it’s being told to leave after 32 years.
Amber McMillan, executive director of the not-for-profit Rogers Society — which has been running child-care programs in the building since 1991 — said a separate letter informed the organization that it still has to vacate the facility by June 30. She said the society provides 63 child-care spaces. The situation has raised concerns among parents and leaves summer camps run by the society in question, McMillan said, since her group has to vacate by June 30, and the new provider will start in September.
The North Quadra Community Association has sent a letter to the school board in support of the society, she said.
