BUDGET DISCUSSIONS
In 2023, the Aurora Academic Charter Schools (AACS) Board of Directors revised their policy to require the presentation of a forecast budget one month before its approval at the May Board meeting. If you have any concerns or suggestions regarding school-related issues, including school fees and transportation costs, we encourage you to contact the Board directly. Your feedback is invaluable to us. Board contact information can be found on our website at https://www.auroraschool.ca/governance.
SECONDARY SCHOOL LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS
AACS is collaborating with ACI Architecture and Arrow Engineering to design leasehold improvements for our secondary school. We will soon share these plans along with opportunities for you to provide input. We value your feedback and look forward to engaging with parents on this important project.
5-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN
We are excited to announce that we have initiated the five-year strategic planning process for Aurora Academic Charter Schools. We have completed a thorough review of our 2018-2023 Strategic Plan and are moving forward with the next steps. A stakeholder committee will be formed shortly, and we will actively engage parents through interviews, focus groups, and surveys. Your insights and participation are crucial to shaping our strategic direction, and we look forward to your involvement. You can expect to hear from us soon with more details on how you can contribute.
