Living Sky School District Celebrates 10 Years
Staff at the Living Sky School Division celebrated the district’s tenth anniversary Tuesday, Feb. 23 in North Battleford.
Living Sky was one of twelve new school districts created a decade ago when 70 districts were reorganized and amalgamated into 28. Living Sky is an amalgamation of Landswest, Cando, Sonningdale and the former Battlefords school divisions.
Randy Weekes, MLA for Biggar, spoke on behalf of Education Minister Don Morgan during celebrations at the Living Sky School District offices in North Battleford.
“I think the board members need to take a lot of credit, people who have stepped forward to serve on the board, and of course the staff,” Weekes said. “Whenever there is change there can be challenges and I think they have performed very well and it’s been a great success and it has been an improvement to the education system.”
