Public school staff presented a bleak 2024 2025 budget to s face a vital service. That's enrolment growth projections for the school division are 5.2% year over here with just under 6,000 new students expected next school year.

Julie cusick says the reserve has gone from 67 million to about 20 million in 10 years. She says it's not sustainable and the province needs to take a hard look at the provincial funding model. This isn't working for growing school divisions. We've had 5 years now to explore this new funding formula. It's time to do something different. The budget passed unanimously, but there's already growing concern. The next one could mean making difficult decisions that could further impact kids and the

>> With what is what needs to be amanda anderson, ctv news, edmonton. >> The alberta aviation museum is negotiating with the city for ownership of hangar. 14. The city currently owns the hangar. It's been the home of the museum for more than decades. A 2022 report found the building needed approximately 41 million dollars in renovations. The property was put up for sale last october, the city received 3 formal submissions. But in the end decided to negotiate with the museum for it to take over ownership. The museum's executive director says of a rd party. But the building the museum would have to pay at least $800,000 in rent. >> When you're looking at the institution that has a 1.1 1.2 million dollars overall operating budget. That's all of it gone basically. So that would not work that that would decimate a cells. This is this is a good thing being in control of your own home. >> Anger 14 was built in 1942. City council has agreed to raise some transit fares to make up for some of the money that's being lost.

>> All right, josh, a lot happening this weekend outside, we got the markets, we've got the dance parties. Football game also preseason game at the outdoor oiler watch parties. Will the weather cooperate this weekend? >> Well, I think through most of the daytime hours tomorrow, the weather is going to be fine tomorrow night. So the late evening was a pretty good chance. We'll see some showers and then sunday looks cloudier and what will get tomorrow, we'll get into that in a first. Take a look outside with the river valley, skycam stern by capital gmc buick 34th avenue edmonton with temperatures set today hit 50 degrees for a daytime high, currently sitting at 14 and after a lot of sunshine this morning. The clouds kind of increase through this afternoon. Under a mix of sun and cloud to mostly cloudy skies across the region right now, it's 15 to the south red deer. 17 fort mcmurray, grande prairie and close to 20 in high level. Again this afternoon, showers and thunderstorms popped up across southern and western parts province as well. Just off the south, the grande prairie area. We've had some showers and thunderstorms, even a couple sprinkles there in northeastern alberta. But here in the edmonton area, these clouds are pretty empty. And so we're not expecting any showers tonight. You'll still see some evening showers and in through western parts of the province. And it's really sort of western and southern alberta, the same areas that got the most of the showers and thunderstorms today. Those are the areas that get most of the showers and thunderstorms late tomorrow afternoon. Watch what happens though, as we head into saturday evening. So most of the day we're dry. But saturday evening, some of that swings a little closer to the edmonton area. No guarantees, but a chance of some evening or overnight showers in the edmonton region. Better chance for areas to the south towards red deer and then west of the city. And then sunday at more cloud than sun. I think at best we get a few sunny breaks on sunday and no heavy steady rain, but a chance of some hit and miss scattered showers. The cool air mass in the mid and upper that big. Broad upper trough continues to be the big story right through the weekend. But watch the warming that comes in. On monday, tuesday, unfortunately, second last much more than 3 days. There will be some more cooler that swings in towards the end of next week. But nice and warm up back into the 20's for early next week, 5 in edmonton in jasper tomorrow morning. Elsewhere around the province should be in the one to 4 degree range. 20 once peace river and high level. Great, great chance. Some late day thunderstorm, same goes for its and mid to upper teens there in mid to upper teens in northeastern alberta with a mix of clouds. Red deer could see some afternoon showers and thunderstorms here in the edmonton area. As we said right off the top. I think most of the daytime hours, if not all the daytime hours, we're dry tomorrow said to be the warmest day, but and maybe a degree warmer than what we saw today. Mix and cloud 16 showers possible tomorrow night hit miss showers on sunday in the 20 to 25 range for monday, tuesday, wednesday. With a little bit of a cool down once again for the end of next week. Thank you, josh. >> Well, football season is almost here. And one of alberta cfl teams is trying to expand its fan base. Ctv's alesia fieldberg with more on the calgary stampeders campaign, specifically at women. >> With calgary stampeders season set to kick off, there's a push to get more fans at the stadium, including a campaign targeting women. You know, when you look at our, our fan base, it's largely older, white males, we've been working really hard to bring a different demographic, expand the demographic. Your man stadium among our fan base. The stamps are offering a discount, unseating the group altogether. My section 6 and t the sunnyside tony, I in brown doesn't need convincing. She's been a ticket holder since 1992. I've been in the same section for over 25 years or so. It's like a football family. It's included 5 generations of her actual family, longtime friends and other season ticket holders. She's looking forward to welcoming 200 more, including ellen parker. Such a wonderful way to build camaraderie to support local athletes and to come together with family and friends along with a discounted rate. The stamps are offering unique benefits, including a speaker series to sidelines experiences and the possibility of flying with the team charter for an away game. Sports marketing experts say it's important to take a holistic approach when targeting females. You want to look at everything kind of from tip to talk with a talk to when they buy tickets, who they see on the sidelines decide light entertainment. They want to see a diverse sport experience and they want to see that you actually support women in the organization as well. Just as taylor swift's recent football fixation has been linked to a boost in female eyes on the nfl. We think our game is better than that. The game to the south of us. The stamps are counting on 200 local ladies instead to help champion the cfl. >> And the home team stampeders new football fans season football fans bringing people together, supporting our community. >> Alesia fieldberg, ctv news.
