在没有来自阿尔伯塔教育部的信息的情况下，卡尔加里教育局对2019-20学年预算采取了谨慎的态度。在《学生至上：2019-22年预算报告》中，我们假设我们将在2019-20年收到与2018-19年相同的资金。

我们预计今年秋季的入学人数将比2018-19年增加1,800名学生，增幅约为1.5%。为了容纳这些额外的学生并应对通货膨胀压力，卡尔加里教育局需要额外的4000万加元，以提供与2018-19学年相一致的服务和支持。

再次强调，我们对2019-20预算的谨慎处理是假设资金将保持在2018-19年的水平，并且我们不会收到这4000万加元的额外资金。

如果资金保持在2018-19年的水平并且增加了1,800名学生，我们预计所有学校的平均班级规模将增加一个学生。

我们将保持学校和地区的员工配备基本保持在2018-19年的水平，这将减轻我们2,200万加元的预算压力。剩下的1800万加元的预算压力将通过一系列其他策略来解决。总的来说，这些策略将使卡尔加里教育局计划在2019-20年的支出与2018-19年相同。
卡尔加里教育局预计，2019年8月和9月，学生们将在我们的246所学校受到热烈欢迎，并接受他们和他们的家庭期望的高质量公共教育。

​The Calgary Board of Education has taken a prudent approach to its 2019-20 school year budget in the absence of information from Alberta Education. In the Students Come First: Budget Report 2019-22, we are assuming we will receive the same amount of money in 2019-20 as in 2018-19.

We anticipate that our enrolment this fall will increase by 1,800 students or approximately 1.5 per cent from 2018-19 levels. To accommodate these additional students and address inflationary pressures, the CBE would need an additional $40 million to provide services and supports at levels consistent with the 2018-19 school year.

Again, our prudent approach to the 2019-20 budget is to assume funding will be held constant at 2018-19 levels and we will not receive any of this additional $40 million.

With funding held constant at 2018-19 levels and an additional 1,800 students, we anticipate that the average class size across all schools will increase by one student.

Holding staffing levels essentially constant at 2018-19 levels in our schools and areas for 2019-20 reduces our budget pressure by $22 million. The remainder of the budget pressure of $18 million will be addressed through a range of other strategies. Taken together, those strategies will see the CBE plan to spend the same amount in 2019-20 as in 2018-19.
The CBE expects that students will be greeted at our 246 schools in August and September of 2019 and receive the high quality public education that they and their families have come to expect.
