Heritage Christian School looking to boost numbers
Heritage Christian School in Battleford is hoping to boost enrolment numbers to try to help increase funding, as part of its work ahead.
Two board members — Al Klippenstein and chair Duncan Hemmerling — made a presentation at a Living Sky School Division’s board meeting last month to discuss some of the school’s current challenges.
As a semi-private school, Heritage Christian School is considered an affiliate school under the Living Sky School Division umbrella.
Klippenstein explained’ as an affiliate school, Heritage Christian School receives grant funding from the school division through the province. In this way, the school division pays some of the school’s expenses, such as teachers’ salaries and utilities costs mainly, on the school’s behalf.
