FSD School Configuration Review
The Okotoks K-9 Attendance Boundary Review Report of December 2023 has led to a decision to postpone the school reconfiguration to the 2024-2025 or 2025-2026 school year. This decision was made due to several factors:
- Lower than expected growth at Meadow Ridge School, attributed to a large Grade 9 class graduating and a smaller incoming Kindergarten class.
- The recent addition of two new classrooms and a modular classroom at Meadow Ridge School, which has temporarily alleviated space constraints.
- The need to give families and the community sufficient time to plan for these changes.
These factors combined allow for more thorough planning and consultation with the community. The postponement ensures that when changes are implemented, they are done thoughtfully and with the best interest of all students in mind.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
