If you can't attend these meetings, write an email to the appropriate powers that be and state "I am not able to attend the meeting but wanted to provide my feedback."

Board of Education Meetings
14033 - 92 Avenue (2nd Floor) - this is the building beside Ecole Simon Cunningham's parking lot Wednesday evenings: 7pm Purpose: Surrey Students Now would like to enact policy change within the District. One item in our goals is to have the school site acquisition charges increase exponentially. Currently they are only a maximum of $1000 per unit built by the developers as a means to fund additional schools. This is not adequate. A second item we would like them to consider is creating boundaries for Choice programs to force people into the Choice program closest to their location as a means to stop having Choice programs be the pawns for when capacity issues arise. Surrey School District Board Meetings are held on Wednesday evenings on the following dates: This link will direct you to the agenda and minutes from the meetings. Note that a full agenda is only provided at the board meeting, the night of the board meeting.
