SD 83 is in the money

Officials with North Okanagan-Shuswap School District 83 are in the enviable position of trying to figure out the best way to spend $500,000 of unallocated funds.

A message from official trustee Mike McKay said “senior staff and the budget committee, which includes partner group representatives, are reviewing the many thoughtful proposals that have come in for program and service enhancements for 2018/19.”

With anticipated enrolment growth, McKay said the district expects funding from government to increase by close to $3 million.

“A large percentage of that money will be needed to provide direct services to the additional students. We will likely have about $500,000 of unallocated funds that can be used to support budget requests from staff, our partner group reps and from proposals presented at the public budget consultation session on April 16.”

A budget process and information overview can be accessed on the district’s website.
