The Ontario government took control of the York Catholic school board in Aurora, Ontario, on March 5, 2026, to address concerns about financial management. The province stepped in to help the board run more effectively and ensure its operations are stable for the community.
As part of this change, all regular meetings for the York Catholic District School Board have been cancelled. The provincial government appointed Carrie Kormos as a supervisor to oversee the board’s activities and make decisions that are normally handled by elected trustees.
While the supervisor will handle most business and operational matters, elected trustees will still keep their authority over religious decisions. The province stated this intervention is needed to improve how the board uses its money and to make the system more efficient.
Kormos will be responsible for reporting back to the province with updates on the board’s progress in restoring sound management. This move aims to strengthen the way the school board functions for the long term.
