MVSD Faces Funding Shortfall After Province Increases Education Support
Mountain View School Division’s secretary treasurer Bart Michaleski expects a funding shortfall despite Education Minister James Allum announcing a two per cent rise to 24.4 million dollars on January 31. Changes to the funding formula and a 20 per cent rise in property assessment will cut MVSD’s share, offsetting the provincial increase.
