Chinook’s Edge trustees are planning to work with trustees from Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools to advocate for a new high school in Sylvan Lake.
According to a media release, the proposed new Grade 10 to 12 school is Chinook’s Edge School Division’s top request to the province as part of the division’s capital plan.
CESD officials note “the new high school would be a collegiate model high school in partnership with Red Deer Catholic, the Town of Sylvan Lake and other partners including post secondary institutions and CAREERS.”
It would provide shared space for all partners with the Chinook’s Edge high school attached on one side and a Red Deer Catholic School attached on the other side.
Information in the media release states that Ecole H.J. Cody – the current CESD high school in Sylvan Lake – is over capacity.
