Released on November 30, 2022
The Government of Saskatchewan is pleased to announce that nearly all of the 15 education infrastructure stimulus maintenance projects announced in June 2020 are complete, or will be complete, by early 2023.
In June 2020, the Government of Saskatchewan announced $25.9 million in stimulus maintenance funding to upgrade mechanical and structural components in 15 schools across the province. This investment was part of the Government's $7.5 billion capital plan to build a strong Saskatchewan and stimulate Saskatchewan's economy.
"Thanks to the collaborative work between school divisions, industry and the province, 80 per cent of all of the maintenance projects are complete and the majority of the capital has been invested to improve over a dozen schools in communities across the province," Education Minister Dustin Duncan said. "These projects created job opportunities that supported our economy during the pandemic and contribute to ensuring the continued safety and well-being of our students, teachers, and school staff."
Currently ten of the 15 projects are complete, two more are scheduled to be finished by the end of the 2022 calendar year, with the remaining three planned to be done in early 2023. The projects are located in the communities of Aberdeen, Allan, Clavet, Delisle, Gravelbourg, Hague, Harris, Hepburn, Humboldt, Langham, Meadow Lake, Saskatoon, Swift Current, Tisdale and Yorkton.
Ten projects are completed:
Two projects are expected to be completed in December 2022:
And three remaining projects (currently between 80 and 90 per cent complete) are anticipated to be finished in early 2023:
The projects funded through this stimulus maintenance plan were identified as priorities by school divisions in their preventative maintenance and renewal plans. This stimulus funding was provided to divisions in addition to the annual allocation of preventative maintenance funding that supports school divisions in maintaining their school facilities.
For the 2022-23 school year, the province is providing the 27 provincial school divisions with $55.9 million in preventative and emergency maintenance funding.
"The Prairie Spirit Board of Education deeply appreciates this provincial stimulus funding provided by our government as it allows for some significant and exciting improvements," Prairie Spirit Board Chair Bernie Howe said. "We had an opportunity to tour some of the schools and see the renovations firsthand. These changes show our dedication to a safe, inclusive, and functional learning environment and we thank the province for making this possible."
Since 2007, the Government of Saskatchewan has committed approximately $1.9 billion toward school infrastructure projects. These projects include 57 new or replacement schools, as well as 28 major renovations and two minor renovations.
