The North Vancouver Board of Education is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and enriching learning environment that promotes learner well-being and diverse educational experiences.  Animals may be brought into schools to support instruction for learners, in accordance with the administrative procedures. 

The Board recognizes that certified or accredited assistance dogs play a role on School District sites in fostering an environment that ensures equitable access to services, programs, and activities within the School District.  The School District supports the use of certified or accredited assistance dogs, as outlined in the BC Guide Dog and Service Dog Act.
