Eagle Butte High School modernization expected to be pushed back another year
DUNMORE, AB — Modernization work at Eagle Butte High School is not expected to be completed for another year.
The school is currently scheduled on the Alberta Education website for modernization work to be completed in September 2018. $5.9 million in upgrades were first announced in 2014, and they were scheduled to be completed by September 2017.
“We just closed our tender process on March 1,” said Ryan Boser, secretary/treasurer with the Prairie Rose School Division. “We’re just in the final stages of the evaluation process that goes around with looking at all the contractors’ bids. That evaluation process is almost complete, and then the final step is we have to send that off to Alberta Infrastructure for their final review.”
The school has not had any major work completed since it was first built in the 1990s.
