NEW HOME FOR CARNDUFF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Released on June 26, 2002

A major renovation and addition is planned at Carnduff High School to

accommodate students from Carnduff Elementary School in time for the 2004

school year.



"We are investing in schools, in students, and in the future of

Saskatchewan," Learning Minister Jim Melenchuk said. "The Carnduff

Elementary School has served students very well for close to 50 years.

However, the time has come to provide a more modern, integrated education

facility."



The project will add new classrooms and some program space to the high

school. Once the students move to this new facility, the elementary school

will close. Construction costs will be determined in the next few months,

and will be shared by Saskatchewan Learning and the Souris Moose Mountain

School Division.



"By consolidating the two schools, we can ensure the space is being fully

utilized by students," Melenchuk said. "We are committed to providing a

comfortable, well-equipped learning environment that makes the most

efficient use of space."



This project is part of the government's commitment to invest in modern,

well-equipped learning facilities for Saskatchewan students. With $40

million in the Department of Learning capital budget for schools,

approximately 140 school construction, renovation and upgrading projects

will be funded in communities around the province this fiscal year. An

additional $20 million over four years is available for school facilities

from the Centenary Fund, which was announced in 2000.
