Catholic high school and elementary teachers will soon have to pay for parking, as the school board grapples with a $32.8 million funding shortfall.
The Toronto Catholic District School Board approved the new parking fees at a special budgetary meeting Tuesday night — charging full-time teachers and administrators $10 per day to park their vehicles on school property.
Board Chair Maria Rizzo calls the measure a “new part of reality” to ensure vital student programs continue in the wake of funding cuts from the Progressive Conservative government.
