What an NCAA rule change might mean for junior hockey in Sask.
Nov 18, 2024
Previously, WHL players were declared ineligible to play NCAA hockey in the U.S.
Harbour Landing School is bursting at the seams and parents are invited to attend a public school board meeting Tuesday evening aimed at addressing the issue.
Regina Public Schools said in the agenda for Tuesday’s meeting there will be a discussion about enrolment pressures faced by some of its schools — including Harbour Landing School — that are sufficient to require boundary changes for the fall of 2023.
The school board also said the boundary changes will impact Ethel Milliken School and the newly rebuilt Argyle School, which will open for students in April.
Harbour Landing School started to show signs of overcrowding when it opened as a dual track English and French Immersion school. The French Immersion program had to be moved to Dr. A.E. Perry School in September 2020 because enrolments increased too quickly.
Harbour Landing School’s enrolment was 1,055 on March 15 of this year and has increased by 55 students since last Sept. 30. Most of the new students are children from newcomer families, the school board added.
It also said the enrolment demand is expected to continue increasing.
The meeting will take place at the Regina Public Schools board office on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m.
At the moment, there’s no indication of when a final decision will be reached.
