Welcome to the 2013/2014 Thames Valley District School Board budget website.

As Chair of the Budget Advisory Committee, I am pleased to offer the public an opportunity to provide input in the budget process.

The Board’s new Mission and Vision are setting the tone for this year’s budget consultations.

Our mission, “We build each student’s tomorrow, every day,” will help guide Trustees as we face these challenging times in education. Our budget decisions will impact students today and in the future and we appreciate the importance of the job ahead of us.

Our vision, “The Thames Valley learning community inspires innovation, embraces diversity, and celebrates achievements – a strong foundation for all students,” serves to remind Trustees of the commitment we have to student learning and of the value of a good education. 
 
Over the next few months, the budget preparation process will include presentations by administration and opportunities for public input. This provides valuable information for discussion and debate among Trustees, which will lead to the submission of a final approved document to the Ministry of Education by the required deadline.

If you have comments or concerns, please direct them to the Budget Advisory Committee Chair or to any member of the Committee. Email addresses are listed below. You can send a written submission by June 7, 2013, addressed to me at the Thames Valley District School Board, 1250 Dundas Street, London, ON  N6A 5L1.

Jennifer Coghlin,
Budget Advisory Committee Chair
