Tompkins Memorial Elementary School to be replaced
The provincial government has chosen a site for a new school in Reserve Mines to replace the Tompkins Memorial Elementary School.
A news release from the province says the new school will accommodate 240 students. It will be built behind the existing school.
The site was chosen by the departments of Public Works and Early Childhood Development and included evaluations of land options and community feedback, the release says.
Public Works Minister Fred Tilley said in the release that the design process will begin this summer. The release says parents, community members and school staff will be involved in the design.
No date has been given for completion of the project.
