On March 2, 2026, the Parkland School Division announced it is looking for a local resident to join its audit committee as a public representative. This position allows a community member in Spruce Grove, Alberta, to help oversee the school board’s budget and financial reporting.

The board is specifically searching for someone who holds a Chartered Professional Accountant designation or a similar professional credential. This person will provide an outside perspective on the division’s financial checks and accountability.

The role involves attending about four half-day meetings each year, though there is a possibility for more sessions if required. The successful candidate will receive a daily payment for their time and contribution to the committee.

This recruitment effort is designed to help the board of trustees keep the division’s financial records transparent. Public members offer expert advice to ensure the school division follows all rules and uses its budget effectively.
