The Board of Education follows a budget development process each school year in order to establish the final annual budget for submission to the Ministry of Education and Child Care. This process begins with providing an opportunity for partners to share input toward decision-making through a survey. The survey will be open for input until November 28, 2025. Thank you for your engagement in this important process. Click here to access the survey.

On Remembrance Day, the Sea to Sky School District honours the sacrifices of Canada’s veterans, including Indigenous veterans and all those who continue to serve. In the days leading up to Remembrance Day, students across our schools participated in ceremonies, created artwork, and learned about Canada’s history of service. These activities encourage reflection on the courage, resilience, and dedication of those who defended our freedoms, reminding us of the importance of peace, unity, and respect.

In honour of Indigenous Veterans Day on November 8, the Sea to Sky School District recognizes the sacrifices and contributions of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit veterans who have served in uniform. Indigenous peoples in Canada have a long-standing history of military service, with thousands bravely enlisting during major conflicts, from World War I and World War II to present-day peacekeeping missions. Their courage, resilience, and dedication to peace have left a lasting impact on Canada and the world. Today, we express our gratitude to all Indigenous veterans as we acknowledge their invaluable role in shaping our shared history and protecting our freedoms.

In honour of Indigenous Veterans Day, all school and district sites will lower the Canadian Flag to half-mast, and the flags will remain at half-mast until Remembrance Day.

As we begin to experience colder weather and winter-like conditions, please check out this friendly reminder about our school district's Inclement Weather and School Closure Policy.

Sea to Sky Schools wishes everyone a fun and safe Halloween! Families can look forward to a strong community presence on Halloween night, with local safety teams out and about—sharing treats, joining in the fun, and helping to keep everyone safe. We encourage everyone to celebrate responsibly, make safe choices, and remember that fireworks are prohibited. Students are welcome to wear costumes to school, keeping in mind our commitment to inclusivity, safety, and respect for all. Please leave accessories like swords, wands, or brooms at home, and save masks for our parade. For more safety tips, visit Health Canada’s Halloween Safety Guide linked to this post—and for trick-or-treaters, remember to wear something bright or reflective, carry a flashlight, and use face paint instead of masks for better visibility.
