Students return to class Thursday at Red Deer’s St. Patrick’s Community School.

The school is the only one within Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools with a year-round calendar, and this year will welcome 578 students.

Per the division: “Our year-round education model is designed to provide students with a holistic and enriching learning experience. With more frequent breaks throughout the year, students can better retain what they’ve learned and enjoy a smooth transition into the next school year.”

Motorists are reminded to drive cautiously through the parking lot, which is adjacent to the G.H. Dawe Recreation Centre.
