As part of its Budget 2019 capital plan, 15 new schools, including brand new high schools in Calgary, Edmonton, Leduc, Blackfalds, and Langdon, are being built in Alberta. Six schools are slated for replacement and four will receive modernization or additions. Together, the 25 projects will receive $397 million.
“These 25 projects confirm our government’s commitment to continue to build schools across the province,” said Prasad Panda, Minister of Infrastructure. “Alberta Infrastructure will continue to deliver key infrastructure projects to build prosperity for Albertans.”
Budget 2019 also includes $1.4 billion over four years to continue work on previously announced school projects across Alberta, which includes $123 million for about 250 new modular classrooms to address the most urgent needs for additional space across the province. There are more than 60 projects underway in the province. Twenty-seven are expected to be open for the 2020-21 school year, and the remaining projects are in various stages of planning and construction.
