Three Year Capital Plan

Each year school division’s assess their school capital requirements and prioritise proposed projects based on defined priorities. These projects are identified in a Three-Year Capital Plan that must be approved by the Board and submitted to Alberta Education annually by April 1.  WRSD’s three priorities are; 1) Right size Breton Schools, 2) Right size Rocky Schools and 3) Frank Maddock High School - Major Modernization.  The Board approved the 2023-2026 Three Year Capital Plan.

Edwin Parr Nominee

Our Director of Human Resources and Principal of Frank Maddock High School introduced our Edwin Parr nominee, Ben Southwick to the Board of Trustees.  The annual award will be celebrated at a dinner next May where the winner of the Zone 4 Edwin Parr award will be announced.  Our division is pleased to have such a strong candidate who exemplifies all of the attributes we look for in a first year teacher.
