Living Sky School Division hopes the new provincial budget offers more for education when it is released next month.
“We’re asking to have a budget that is sufficient to meet the needs that we have,” Director of Education Brenda Vickers said. “We have needs around human resources. We have to be able to afford to staff our schools, to staff our office, and then we have needs around other areas.”
She said the division’s priorities include covering the costs for the business end of operation as well.
“We have to be able to afford to buy buses, and keep our IT infrastructure up to date,” Vickers said.
