Budget and Budget Consultation Process

You will find information on how you can participate in the consultation process in the local newspapers, and on the district website and social media.

Accumulated Operating Surplus Report
The term “Accumulated Operating Surplus” refers to the accumulation of prior year funds sitting in a surplus position (when funding available in a particular year exceeds expenses paid).
Accumulated surplus funds will be used in a strategically aligned manner with district operational goals and, wherever possible, will be directed to areas of the greatest need in the most efficient manner possible. Initiatives funded from Accumulated Operating Surplus funds, and proposed to the Board of Education, like other budgeted funds, are vetted by the District Budget Committee in terms of their alignment with district objectives and initiative success.
The Reserve Funds spending plan for the next three years, as approved by the Board, is described in the Accumulated Operating Surplus Report.
