TLDSB approves balanced budget for 2024-2025 school year.

Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) approved a $264.8 million budget for the 2024-2025 school year. It was approved by trustees during the June 11 board meeting. TLDSB officials said it is important the system continues to grow student knowledge. “As a system, a balanced budget is an essential component to operate effectively while meeting the two goals of student achievement and student and staff well-being within the TLDSB 2022-2027 Strategic Plan. I am incredibly proud of the work of the Finance Services team, superintendents, and trustees who have kept the work of the strategic direction in focus, while completely redesigning this new budget,” said director of education, Wes Hahn. Superintendent of Business Services, Tim Ellis, said the budget aims to continue the momentum of “the gains in student achievement in recent years.” “To help ensure this and the growth TLDSB is experiencing, the classroom teaching staff adjustments within the budget reflect the anticipated changes in enrolment at each school,” added Ellis. Officials said trustees were presented with a breakdown of the financial amounts within the new Core Education Funds from the Ministry of Education. The amounts were broken out into six areas, including classroom staffing, learning resources, special education, school facilities, student transportation, and school board administration.
