Rural Manitoba funding fights rise over dwindling pupils
Rural Manitoba school divisions face funding shortfalls as enrolment drops and property assessments rise. Education Minister McIntosh defends the 1992 formula while noting some divisions gain per pupil funds and others lose. Pelly Trail faces a 4.3 percent enrolment decline and a 13.24 percent base funding drop since 1992, despite a proposed $16,200 Early Literacy grant.
