November 9 – 15, 2020 is Local Government Week in Saskatchewan, a week to raise awareness and engagement in local democracy.

Individuals are elected to the school boards to govern K-12 education in school divisions.  They listen to requests from their community and make decisions that form the education for Saskatchewan students.  This year, the school board elections take place November 9, 2020.

As well, as part of Local Government Week, Saskatchewan’s Local Government Week Committee is offering a free virtual session for residents interested in learning more about local government in Saskatchewan. On November 12, 2020, at 6:30 p.m., join local government representatives for an open forum where you can ask your local government questions. Learn more and register online at tinyurl.com/sklocalgovernment.

Local Government Week is a partnership between the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations, Métis Nation – Saskatchewan, Municipalities of Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, and the Saskatchewan School Boards Association.

Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division wishes to acknowledge our Board for the contribution they make on behalf of our communities, staff and students.  We are grateful for the excellent work they do for us.
