A number of Saskatchewan school divisions are getting some extra help from the provincial government.
On Monday, the Saskatchewan government announced 27 school divisions will receive another $1.8 million in funding to cover what it called “additional substitute teacher and other school-based employee costs.”
The government said the funding will be used for costs incurred in the 2021-22 school year.
“We are happy to provide this additional funding to school divisions for the unforeseen costs they have incurred this school year,” Education Minister Dustin Duncan said in a media release. “We appreciate the work of our school divisions, teachers and other school-based staff for their dedication to supporting students.”
The divisions are to get the money by the end of March.
