And, despite our challenges as a community, 2020 has provided David McKinnon us with the opportunity to re-evaluate how we work together and to consider different ways we can help Mark Saar students through the lens of increasing access, providing equity supports and filling gaps created by the Mike Shaikh pandemic and disrupted classroom learning. I am both proud and grateful for the extraordinary efforts of our Dr. Richard Sigurdson Board of Governors and our small and mighty team of wonderful staff. Thank you.

  • Calgary Board of Education – Final Report – May 2020
    Financial Cost Management and Governance Review of the Calgary Board of Education Pursuant to Section (70)(1) of the Education Act and Public Inquiries Act Prepared for the Minister of Education Government of Alberta May 11, 2020 Contents Executive Summary 2 About the Review 4 Approach and Methodology 7 Detailed Findings 8 Financial Cost Management and Governance Review 1 Executive Summary Alberta Education remains committed to ensuring school boards provide high-quality educational programming to their students and recognizes that many factors contribute to school board success. In order to ensure this commitment and pursuant to Sections 70(1) and 33(h) and (i) of the Education Act, Shane Troyer, Partner with Grant Thornton LLP and Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) was appointed to review the financial and administrative condition of the Calgary Board of Education (CBE). The scope of our review included Governance and Financial Cost Management with a focus on: • Board procedures, related governance practices and decision making • Effectiveness of financial management and internal control processes • Funding and allocation of resources including program delivery costing • Control of public information • Specific cost centres including head office lease options, plant operations and maintenance including student transportation costs, staffing levels and related compensation, procurement, and instructional program cost management. Overall, the findings are indicative of an organization that has undergone turmoil at the governance level with a focus on process over function and a short-term view of financial sustainability. This said, at the operational level of financial management we found many examples of strong financial processes and controls along with some areas for which we have provided recommendations for improvement.
