在2018年3月13日的公开董事会会议上，卡尔加里教育委员会董事会批准了《2019-2022年三年学校资本计划》，要求省政府提供12所新学校和10个主要现代化项目。

“尽管在过去两年开设了许多新学校，为我们的学生提供了更多接近家庭的学习空间，但我们仍然需要更多的学校和现代化项目，以支持日益增长的卡尔加里学生人数和他们的学习需求。”董事会主席Trina Hurdman表示。

卡尔加里教育委员会计划在四月份开设Griffith Woods学校，以及今年九月份开设新的Joane Cardinal-Schubert高中。此外，目前有三个新的小学建设项目正在Cranston、Coventry Hills/Country Hills Village和Evergreen社区进行，还有三个高中现代化项目正在进行中。

新的计划确定了一个单一的资本优先级列表，包括新学校建设和主要现代化项目，这是阿尔伯塔教育部的要求。所有项目的总成本超过4.03亿加元。

卡尔加里教育委员会并不决定何时建设新学校。省政府决定新学校的地点、时间和方式。每年，学校董事会向阿尔伯塔教育部提交一个三年学校资本计划。该计划确定了新学校建设和主要现代化的优先事项。

“尽管城市人口增长放缓，但新开发社区仍需要新学校。此外，我们也意识到对老化学校进行改造的投资的重要性。”设施和环境服务主任Dany Breton表示。

2014年，董事会在对学校资本项目进行彻底审查，包括公众参与后，批准了修订后的排名标准。这些标准基于数据，并为所有社区建立了公正和公平的流程。

阿尔伯塔教育部要求在2018年4月1日之前提交该计划。

​At the March 13, 2018 public board meeting, the Calgary Board of Education Board of Trustees approved the Three-Year School Capital Plan 2019-2022 requesting 12 new schools and 10 major modernizations from the Provincial Government.

“While the opening of new schools over the past two years has certainly helped provide many new learning spaces for our students closer to home, there is an ongoing need for additional schools and modernizations to provide the infrastructure to support the ever growing number of Calgary students and their learning needs,” said Trina Hurdman, Board Chair.

The CBE is scheduled to open Griffith Woods School in April and the new Joane Cardinal-Schubert High School this September. Additionally, there are currently three new elementary school construction projects in the communities of Cranston, Coventry Hills/Country Hills Village and Evergreen, and three high school modernizations under development.

The newest plan identifies a single prioritized capital list consisting of both new school construction and major modernization requests, as required by Alberta Education. The total cost of all of the projects is over $403 million.

The Calgary Board of Education doesn’t decide when new schools are built. The Provincial Government determines where, when and how new schools are built. Each year, school boards submit a Three-Year School Capital Plan to Alberta Education. The plan identifies priorities for new school construction and major modernizations.

“Despite slower population growth across the city, there is still a need for new schools in new and developing communities. As well, we recognize the importance of investment to revitalize existing spaces in our aging schools,” said Dany Breton, superintendent Facilities and Environmental Services.

In 2014 the Board of Trustees approved revised ranking criteria for school capital projects after a thorough review of the criteria, including a public engagement. The criteria are data driven and establish a fair and equitable process for all communities.

Alberta Education requires the plan to be submitted by April 1, 2018.
