2020-21 Budget Consultation
The Rainy River District School Board has started the budget process for the 2020-21 school year. The budget is developed to support the Board Strategic Plan which includes the two pillars of Culture of Life Long Learning and the Culture of Caring. The annual operational plan and budget are built to support our work to fulfill the Strategic Plan's goals.
Administration is inviting your feedback in the budget development. The focus again this year is to seek input on the programs/services that have the greatest impact on student achievement and wellbeing.
The survey is now closed. We thank you for your input.
2019-2020 Budget
At its June 25, 2019 Special Board meeting, the Trustees approved the 2019-20 Budget in the amount of $53,354,540 pending Ministry of Education approval.
The Rainy River District School Board Strategic Plan identifies, engagement of our students and parents, and values input from parents, guardians, members of the public and staff concerning the development of the Budget.
Before providing input, community members were encouraged to the review the Board's Program Strategy, Strategic Planning Goals, and Strategic Planning Commitments and complete a Budget Survey. Stakeholder feedback is collected through invitations to school councils and advisory committees. Union partners were also asked for feedback this year. Schools were invited to provide feedback through staff meeting sessions that mirrored the focuses of the budget survey. A key objective of the annual budget process is to align the Rainy River District School Board's financial resources with these important documents.
The Board would like to thank all those who have responded to the budget survey and provided input, and to encourage more participants in future years.

How Do I Direct My Tax Support
Make sure your tax support designation is English Public. When you designate yourself as an English Public school support, you help foster a strong political voice through your elective representative (Trustee).
To verify that you are registered as an English Public school supporter:
- check the assessment section of your Tax Bill or Property Assessment Notice
- check your Voter Information Card
The Application for Direction of School Support form enables any person to apply to have their school support included or revised on the assessment roll by sending the completed form to the Regional Assessment Commissioner. The collection of the information on the form is authorized under the Assessment Act, and any personal information is confidential and protected under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
The information will be used to direct your school taxes; to prepare voters' lists for municipal and school board elections; to help with municipal and school board planning.
