NLSD submits major capital wish list to province
The Northern Lights School Division (NLSD) has sent a list of major capital projects to the provincial government for consideration.
School divisions across Saskatchewan are required to submit such a list to the Ministry of Education annually to be considered for the following year’s budget. At a regular NLSD board meeting held Feb. 19 and 20, members prioritized three schools that are in need of replacement in the coming years.
Those schools in order of priority are Sandy Bay’s Hector Thiboutot Community School, Pinehouse Lake’s Minahik Waskahigan High School and La Ronge’s Pre-Cam Community School. Pre-Cam is also in need of mechanical upgrades.
“That’s just based on the assessments that we do as a school division, then we submit our choices based on those assessments to the ministry,” NLSD director of education Jason Young said.
