Over the last 10 yrs, we have 15K more students and only 10 more teachers⦠Yes, we need capital investment for renovated or new schools. But, we need operating budget increases above enrolment and inflation rates for there to be a real investment in students and education.
Construction is well underway on the new K-12 school in Lanigan. A strong and growing economy allows us to invest in important infrastructure like this, as well as 19 other new/renovation school projects currently in progress across Saskatchewan.

Maybe @PremierScottMoe should also prohibit all MLAs from bringing cell phones into the legislative assembly so they get back to the basics & focus on governing @SKGov @randyweekes @globeandmail @CarlaBeckSK @leaderpost @SLangeneggerCBC @MMandryk

š©Don't be fooled! The Teacher Support and Innovation Fund has supported only 40 projects. We have 13,500 teachers, so ~ 0.3% are being supported with this fund. These aren't the stats I would be celebrating.

Hard to understand how so many directors of education in Saskatchewan got to where they are without a basic understanding of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Also, itās sad how quickly some forget where they came from. #IamSTF
