Trustees Play an Important Role in Education
From engaging families to developing policies, public school board trustees are pivotal to a strong education system in Alberta. Locally elected boards work to ensure every student can reach their potential. Through support of diverse needs and equitable resource distribution, students achieve success and empower their communities to thrive.
The Public School Boards' Association of Alberta supports trustees in their mission and provides resources to help boards champion public education effectively.
President's Corner
March 31, 2026 It’s been another busy month for the Public School Boards’ Association of Alberta (PSBAA). Regarding Budget 2026, the Government of Alberta’s increase to $10.8 billion for K–12 education funding is welcome and appreciated. This is a meaningful investment in Alberta’s students and in the long-term strength of our province. For school divisions—and those that lead them—such an investment calls on us to use the funds strategically and effectively to maximize the positive impacts for students, staff, families and communities. With thoughtful direction and strong fiscal oversight, school boards are best positioned to use the funds to address the realities faced…Increased Funding Must Be Paired with Strategic Direction and Decisions
