Miniota Hears Swan River Unitary School Plan
John Kastrukoff, Swan Valley Unitary School Division superintendent, spoke at Miniota Collegiate Auditorium on December 5 about the division's setup and operation since fall. Transportation costs loom large. 48 buses on feeder runs, 2,300 students transported daily, and a 155 to 140 classroom-teacher ratio with one supervisor per ten teachers. The division currently serves Swan River for Grade 12 with plans for a composite high school and a central school where facilities are shared. Voters face December 15 referendum with doubts on implementation and a proposal to hand planning to eleven unitary trustees, up from seven, while Birdtail River Division boards meet December 8. Russell Clark and Douglas Heise participated in the discussion and referendum committee.
