Chief Superintendent Naomi Johnson, in a
video statement, has shared that funding to the board will be down an estimated 6% overall even as costs to educate students continue to rise. The Alberta School Boards Association, in its
media release, warns that "services to students will be cut because of the budget." The
Alberta Teachers' Association adds "that this budget will result in a loss of teaching positions." Education Minister, Dave Hancock, comments on education impacts during
this CTV news presentation from Edmonton.
