School District 71 passes 2016-2017 budget

The Comox Valley School Board has passed a balanced budget for 2016-17.

The district was facing a $2.8 million deficit.

It found savings through some staff reductions and the move to an alternate instruction week.

Board chair Tom Weber says the board and the district will be monitoring the new schedule to ensure that it is meeting the needs of students and staff.
