The Grand Erie District School Board is asking community members to help shape its 2026-27 budget by sharing their input through a newly launched survey. The board says feedback from students, families, staff, and residents will help guide decisions on funding priorities for the upcoming school year.
Board Chair Brian Doyle says community perspectives are essential in ensuring the budget reflects shared values and supports student success. The survey is open until April 24, giving respondents time to weigh in on key areas of focus and resource allocation.
Director of Education JoAnna Roberto says the process is part of a commitment to transparency and responsiveness, helping the board align its resources with evolving needs. She adds that building a sustainable budget depends on clear communication and collaboration across the community.
The finalized budget will be presented to trustees in June before being submitted to the province by the June 30 deadline. Additional information and survey access are available through the board’s website, with alternative submission options also offered by email.
