The Interlake School Division Board of Trustees officially approved the budget for the 2026-2027 school year during a meeting in Stonewall, Manitoba, on March 9, 2026. This decision follows a period of public consultation where the board gathered feedback on how to fund local education priorities.
The board hosted a virtual public meeting on February 23, 2026, and met with local groups on March 2, 2026, to review suggestions from the community. These discussions helped shape the final plan for spending on classroom materials and student programs for the upcoming school year.
According to the 2026-2027 Final Budget, the funding will cover the daily costs of running schools throughout the division. Board Chairperson Alan Campbell and Vice-Chairperson Sally Cook led the effort to align the financial plan with the needs of the community.
The finalized spending details are now available to the public as the school district moves from the planning stage to putting the budget into action. This financial plan will guide all school operations for the duration of the 2026-2027 academic year.
