Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools seek parent and staff stakeholder feedback in sessions
Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools (RDCRS) is advancing in its new middle school construction and wants to hear from parents and staff stakeholders for feedback.
To prepare for the opening of St. Lorenzo Ruiz Middle School, the RDCRS says reconfiguration of middle school boundaries will need to occur to ensure all schools are operating at a viable capacity with roughly the same utilization rate.
In addition to the guiding principles, RDCRS’ administration says they considered the existing programs offered in each school, as well as the neighborhood’s proximity to existing schools.
Administration also took the opportunity to make minor adjustments to some elementary school boundaries to increase utilization rates and make the transition to middle school smoother. They developed and evaluated multiple scenarios, collected feedback from trustees and school-based administrators, and presented two viable options to RDCRS’ Board of Trustees at the Jan. 25 regular board meeting.
