Have your say on budget preparation

The Board of Trustees invites all staff, parents, and community members to participate in upcoming Stakeholder Engagement Sessions next month. These sessions will focus on gathering feedback to inform the 2025-2026 school division budget. Key themes for discussion, identified in November 2024, include mental health support, special needs resources, staffing concerns, transportation costs, and holistic student well-being. Sessions will be held online on April 15th and in person at St. Thomas Aquinas Middle School on April 16th, both from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM.

Participants will be asked to consider the impact of recent provincial budget announcements and discuss how to prioritize resources for quality faith-based education and student needs. They will also explore innovative community-driven solutions to support student success amid potential resource constraints. The Board values this input to guide budgetary priorities and ensure the best possible learning environment for all students.
