Families,
I am writing to let you know that we have received confirmation that the new Pre-Primary to Grade 8 school on Broad Street will now open for September 2023. This new date coincides with the opening of the Grades 9-12 school co-located on the site.
The original construction timeline was set prior to the pandemic. COVID-19 has presented many challenges over the past two years, including delays and disruptions in supply chains – especially with building materials.
I recognize that this is disappointing news for those looking forward to starting school on Broad Street this September. If you’ve driven by the site recently, you will know that construction is well underway and the building is taking shape. I know the new schools will be welcome additions to the growing community.
In the meantime, please be assured that we are making plans to accommodate students for the 2022-23 school year. I expect to have more information to share with you next month.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Sincerely,
Elwin LeRoux,
Regional Executive Director of Education
