$8.8 million of the investment has been allocated for the planning of nine new schools and renovations across the province, including in the provinces largest cities.
Schools in Saskatchewan’s two largest cities are filling up with students, and the demand for more schools has never been higher.
According to budget documents, about $216 million is set to go toward school infrastructure — up by $68.7 million from last year’s budget. It’s part of the $3.3-billion total budget for the ministry of education. In terms of the emphasis on a joint-use school with some sort of recreation centre in the middle, Masters said the space should hopefully get great usage.
“I know residents and neighbours in the neighbourhood have been asking about when the schools will be there, so knowing we will be able to proceed with the high school and then planning work for the elementary schools is really exciting,” Gough said.
