Board & School Council Meeting
The bi-annual Board & School Council meeting was held on April 23 at central office. Trustees and council members discussed the government’s initiative to reduce rural ride times. The superintendent reported that PLRD busing schedules reflect minimal ride times possible within our budget. School councils reported on their community engagement fund projects, and the secretary treasurer gave an update on the proposed balanced operating budget for the 2012-2013 school year. The deputy superintendent’s report regarding developments within the ABY Campus (Altario, Berry Creek, and Youngstown) was discussed. Of note were the positive results students achieved through video conference instruction, and the cycling of high school courses in order to broaden course offerings with the available teacher time.
