AISI CONFERENCE 2012

THERE IS NO REGISTRATION FEE FOR THIS CONFERENCE
In recent months, Aspen View School Division has examined efficiencies in all areas of the division. This has led to reductions in division office staffing and administration. Aspen View School Division Trustees are currently investigating the appropriate number of trustees needed to responsibly govern this division. The board is considering the options of reducing the Board of Trustees to seven or five trustees.
Relevant Information:
- Currently, there are 9 trustees serving on the board. This number was determined when our three counties were amalgamated in 1995.
- Our student population throughout the district has been declining an average of 2-4% over the last 10 years.
- Of the 65 school boards in Alberta, only 11 of those have nine or more trustees.
- Alberta education values geographical representation. Reducing the trustees to 5 or 7 will preserve this.
- Reducing the number of trustees will allow for reduced governance costs.
The Board of Trustees wants your input: What size of board best represents you?
