$7 MILLION COMMITMENT TO STOBART COMMUNITY SCHOOL SUPPORTS GROWTH

Released on May 29, 2008

Students from both the Stobart elementary and high schools celebrated when Education Minister Ken Krawetz announced nearly $7 million in government funding for an estimated $10 million school capital project during a visit to Stobart High School today.

"This investment exemplifies the benefits of the Ready for Growth initiative that is helping us grow our economy, improve our quality of life and take pride in where we live," Krawetz said. "The improvements for Stobart Community School will strengthen the education opportunities for the town's young people and the community in which they live and grow."

"Prairie Spirit School Division is very pleased with this project which will provide a significant investment in the facility, resources and learning environment of the schools in Duck Lake - all of which are critical pieces in student success," Prairie Spirit School Division Board of Education chairperson Andrew Bergen said.

The project is currently entering into the detailed design phase and work is underway to determine how best to meet the needs of both high school and elementary school students in the new Prekindergarten to Grade 12 facility. The new facility is expected to include a new elementary addition, significant renovations to the high school and space for child care and community school use. The project is expected to break ground in 2009.

The Stobart Community School project is part of the Government of Saskatchewan's Ready for Growth commitment of $117.6 million for Kindergarten to Grade 12 school capital including nine major and 36 block funding projects. An additional eight major capital projects were also announced May 13, including an estimated $60.3 million to support six projects to move forward in 2009.
