'Most of the classrooms in that building actually don’t have windows and that’s challenging for people’s sense of well-being'
D.P. Todd Secondary School is bursting at the seams and needs to be either replaced with a bigger school or have an addition built to the existing building, officials say.
SD 57 superintendent Jameel Aziz said D.P. Todd is already pushing its capacity limit, with an increasing student population expected over the next several years. “Most of the classrooms in that building actually don’t have windows and that’s challenging for people’s sense of well-being. A lot of people connect to natural sunlight with their biorhythms and we believe it is the building that is a priority to us to either be completely renovated and updated or replaced.”
Three other additions, all at Prince George elementary schools, were identified as priority items for the ministry to consider funding in the five-year capital plan.
