The Durham District School Board (DDSB) is looking into changing the name of a high school named after disgraced former Governor General Julie Payette.
Julie Payette High School is located in Whitby, Ont and serves students in Kindergarten through Grade 8.
According to DurhamRadioNews.com, the DDSB says they’re going to discuss the name change with the community and will gather input on the next steps.
Last week, Payette resigned over toxic workplace allegations which were revealed after the government released the findings of an independent review conducted by Quintet Consulting Corp.
The report cites allegations of “yelling, screaming, aggressive conduct, demeaning comments and public humiliation.”
Quintet interviewed 92 current and former employees. 43 participants “described the general work environment as hostile, negative or other words to that effect.”
Some complainants also claimed Payette’s verbal harassment of staff turned into instances of physical contact.
Since Payette’s resignation, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tapped Chief Justice of Canada Richard Wagner to fulfill the role of administrator on an interim basis.
Trudeau says he will recommend a new governor general to the Queen “in due course.”
