Near West Accommodation Review: 

The Near West Working group is working towards achieving a set of recommendations that will support the objective of alleviating the capacity issues at Devonshire and Elmdale Public Schools while providing students with local access to programs and balanced enrollments across study area schools.  The final solution will ideally provide for at least five years of accommodation stability, minimize or eliminate the use of portables, support walkability and robust neighbourhood schools, as well as make effective use of District facilities involved in the area study.   Changes in programing demand, increased enrollment, small school buildings and implementation of Board-wide Full Day Kindergarten have all contributed to our current situation.
