Justin is a special needs students attending Sagonaska Demonstration School in Belleville.

The Sagonaska Demonstration School in Belleville, as well as four other schools in Ontario, are currently under review by the provincial government as it looks to cut costs. “These schools are helping a small percentage of kids who otherwise would not get the help, and I don’t think the minister of education (Liz Sandals) is ready to put in place, in each individual school, what these children need to succeed.”
