September 2022

Message from the Human Resources Department
Re: School Organizations

Schools have built class lists based on their tentative organizations. Changes may be necessary
at your child(ren)’s school in order that our Board remain compliant with Ministry parameters
(see below). Any changes would be implemented by Monday, September 19th. Principals do
not have the option of changing the school organization that is set by the District Staffing
Committee of the Board. If changes affect your child(ren), you will be informed by the school.
Ministry of Education Parameters
• Full Day Kindergarten Class Size Average for the Board is 26 students
• 90% of Full Day Kindergarten classes with 29 or fewer students
• 10% of Full Day Kindergarten classes with up to 32 students, under certain
circumstances
• 90% of the Board’s primary classes with 20 or fewer students
• 10% of the Board’s primary classes up to a maximum of 23 students
• Grade 3/4 classes have a cap of 23 students
• Junior/Intermediate Class Size Average for the Board is 24.5 students

Please note: No changes to student placement will happen until after the District Staffing Committee has reviewed all school organizations in early September.
