2 million despite allocating Declining Enrolment Adjustment funding. 6 million, driven largely by increased educational assistant compensation, additional FTE, specialized equipment, and new care and treatment programming at Merrymount. The budget narrative highlights specific funded lines such as Specialized Equipment Allocation (SEA), Education and Community Partnership Programs (ECPP/CTEP), Behaviour Expertise, and new Special Education and Disabilities Transitions (SEDT) funding, along with program reallocations like Empower reading.This creates strong pressure to optimize contracted services, technology, and specialized supports within constrained dollars and suggests the Board may look for cost-effective vendors, program redesign support, and tools that maximize staff productivity and student outcomes.

New elementary care and treatment program at Merrymount is planned; SEA per-pupil funding and claims-based components are active; Empower reading costs were reallocated out of special education.
