Regina Parents Fight Preschool Closure | Vancouver News

Regina parents are in uproar as the city’s beloved, low-cost preschool — a lifeline for low-income families since 1977 — prepares to shut down. Founded by Anne Luke with a Reggio Emilia philosophy that prioritized whole-family learning, the center cost just $40 a year and earned national acclaim. Now, facing a $300K deficit and lost funding, administrators have stunned families with the closure — many feel ignored and betrayed. Over 70 parents have launched a petition demanding board removal and a special election to restore community control. Advocates warn replacing it with expensive daycare would erase decades of progress and leave vulnerable families behind.
