Question 9-16(2) Yellowknife Schools Enrolments

Speaker: Mr. Mercer

I have a Return to Written Question 9-16(2) asked by Ms. Bisaro on February 19, 2008, regarding Yellowknife school enrolments.

Later today, at the appropriate time, I will table statistical information on Yellowknife School Enrolments 2003–04 to 2007–08.

The student enrolment numbers provided are for full-time-equivalent students (FTEs) based on student attendance during the month of September for each school year. Prior to fall 2006, student enrolment numbers were calculated based on the number of students with a 40 per cent attendance rate during the month. From 2006 onwards full-time students counted as FTEs are those with a 60 per cent attendance as of September 30th each year.
