What Lord Selkirk School Division does

Lord Selkirk School Division (LSSD) is a public school division established under Manitoba's Public Schools Act, operating K-12 public education across 15 schools in the City of Selkirk and the surrounding Interlake region of Manitoba. The division is governed by a Board of nine trustees elected by and from the community every four years and is overseen operationally by Superintendent Jerret Long, with Board Chair Lena Kublick and Vice Chair Jack Bogaski leading governance.

LSSD's service portfolio spans core instructional programming — English-Ukrainian Bilingual, French Immersion, Technical Vocational (trades, automotive, welding, culinary arts), Pre-School, Adult Education, and an International Student Program — supported by Instructional Technology (ICT) integration, a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework, and a Student Services Centre that delivers the START inter-agency case planning model alongside school-based nutrition and mental health and well-being programs. Beyond instruction, LSSD operates community-grade recreational assets including the Selkirk Community Pool (the largest indoor aquatic facility in the Manitoba Interlake, opened April 20, 1975 and operated with 30 professional staff), the Community Stadium, and the Albert Beach Trail, positioning the division as both an educational authority and a municipal-style facility operator.

LSSD is funded primarily through Manitoba provincial education grants and local property taxes. The 2026-2027 Operating Fund Budget totals CAD $78,802,674 with a CAD $300,000 Capital Fund (Bus Purchases) Budget, approved by the Board on March 3, 2026. Ancillary revenue streams include tuition from the International Student Program, fees from Adult Education, and rental income from community use of facilities. The division maintains active stakeholder partnerships with Manitoba Justice, Child and Family Services, Interlake-Eastern Regional Health Authority, RCMP, the Addictions Foundation of Manitoba, the Manitoba School Boards Association, the Manitoba Association of Parent Councils, Manitoba Parents for Ukrainian Education, The Osvita Foundation, and the Selkirk Community Renewal Corporation.
