Schools Show Support For Humboldt

There was a huge response to Jersey Day in Canada to show support for Humboldt, and the victims of last Friday’s bus crash.

The response was particularly strong in the Vernon School District.

“Many of our students (past and present) have played in the minor and junior hockey leagues, so our students, parents and teachers cannot help but be saddened by the tragic accident that occurred last week,” says Maritza Reilly, communications coordinator for the Vernon School District. “While it was a simple gesture to wear our jerseys today, we hope the Humboldt community can feel the support coming from around the country and world.”
