[SCDSB Chair] Lloyd backed up what the other boards stated.

“We are moving forward on this litigation on a contingency basis and there is no cost to the board, so we are not wasting taxpayers money. We are not taking education dollars out of the classroom.”
———————
If the litigation is successful, Lloyd said they would want the funds to support students and provide additional resources that the board currently needs.
