Niagara Catholic high schools will fly the flag for first time

Today Pride Niagara is pleased to announce the Pride flag will be raised at municipalities across the region.

The flag raising ceremonies will be virtual again this year thanks in part to Meridian Credit Union.

Along with area municipalities, the Pride Flag will fly over Niagara Catholic secondary schools for the first time in board history.

Several other Catholic school boards across the province have also elected to fly the Pride Flag in recognition of Pride Month.

Flags will also fly over Niagara College, Brock University and the Niagara Regional Police Service.
