Speak With Your Trustee
School board trustees are elected to represent you on the Catholic school board. You can speak directly with a trustee to express your views. Trustee contact information is found on the Board of Education page of this site.
Taxation
It is important for Catholic taxpayers to ensure their tax notice states they are of the Catholic Faith so that their school taxes are directed to the Catholic school division. Without this designation, property taxes are automatically directed to public schools. Tax declaration forms are available at your municipal or RM office. If you require information or assistance regarding any aspect of school taxes, please contact the Superintendent of Administrative Services Donald Lloyd by telephone (659-7021), fax (659-2011) or email dlloyd@gscs.sk.ca Read Questions & Answers about tax declaration in this PDF document.

Mill Rate
The 2009-2010 provincial budget introduced significant changes for education funding and the property tax system in Saskatchewan. The provincial government now determines the mill rate to be levied for publicly funded school divisions. It sets province-wide tax rates for each of the three major property classes - residential, commercial and agricultural. Minority faith school boards can still set different tax rates, as is their constitutional right, but if they choose to set a higher rate, any increased revenue will be subtracted from the provincial grant. If the rate is lower, the government will assume the board's funding requirements have decreased and it will adjust its grant accordingly.
