Enrolment for next year relatively flat across Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board; balanced budget includes extra resources for 'math recovery'
The Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board approved a balanced budget of $88,814,304 for the 2023-24 school year Wednesday.There were 4,322 actual pupils within the board in October 2022, with a projection of 4,328 for this October.
However, compared to numbers for the 2021-22 school year in October 2021, actual enrolment is up by 79 students. “The budget includes many exciting initiatives incorporated into it, all designed with our students at the forefront,” said Justin Pino, H-SCDSB superintendent of business, addressing the board Wednesday.
Those initiatives include the assigning of a new Superintendent of Education in charge of a Math Recovery Plan.“We’re hoping it will eventually roll into the Grants for Student Needs and be a permanent position but right now it’s earmarked as a Priorities Partnership Funding position which is a one-year commitment right now," Pino said. "We’re optimistic the Ministry will extend it and possibly make it permanent, but as of now it’s a PPF.
But in his report to the board, Pino said “we’re very proud to say that we’re balancing the budget this year. In conversations with some of our colleagues at other boards, it’s a very challenging budget year for many boards.”
