Enrolment up slightly at NWSD schools
Among several topics at their September meeting, the school board and superintendents of the Northwest School Division (NWSD) discussed enrolments, which are slightly up for the 2017-2018 school year.
Duane Hauk, Director of Education with NWSD said overall in the division there’s approximately 30 more students.
“We’re just over 4,700 students right now,” he said. “It’s up across the division – everybody fluctuates, some might be up some might be down, but that’s across 24 schools. We’ve been holding steady for the last number of years, but we’re starting to climb a few students.”
