The Winnipeg School Division board of trustees passed its 2021-22 budget on Tuesday. The final division budget that's being submitted to the province for the next school year totals over $420 million. "It is unfortunate the Winnipeg School Division continues to mislead parents and use the threats of cuts to student programs and services to deflect responsibility for the handling of their budget," he said. Cam Scott is an organizer with Police Free Schools Winnipeg. The River East School Division board passed its budget last week and approved funding for two SROs, meanwhile Pembina Trails School Division has two resource officers in its 35 schools.
