Students and Families Affordability Fund

Dear Families and/or Guardians,

This past spring, the provincial government announced a renewal of one-time funds for the Student and Family Affordability Fund (link) . This fund is designed to assist families who require financial assistance with school-related costs in the following areas:

• School and course fees
• School supplies and course materials
• Field trips
• School-related extracurricular opportunities
• Clothing and footwear required for sports and school activities 

Please reach out to Ms. Pikkarainen if you are in need of assistance. As always, all requests will be treated with dignity and your privacy will be respected. We want to work with our families to ensure that our students, your children, have everything they need in order to be successful at school. Please do not hesitate to reach out if we can help.

Sincerely,

Ms. April Pikkarainen  
Principal / Jessie Wowk Elementary
