The construction phase of the Border City’s high school renovation and expansion is underway.

Lloydminster Comprehensive High School’s $28.8 million project kicks off with internal work on the campus, through work from Saskatoon-based Quorex construction. This expansion includes a two-storey addition with 12 additional classrooms, two science rooms and two multipurpose rooms, a noteworthy progression for the Lloydminster Public School Division (LPSD).

The costs of these renovations are shared with the Province of Alberta through The Lloydminster Charter.

“These upgrades will support local business and ensure state of the art facilities for students in these communities for years to come,” Saskatchewan Education Minister Dustin Duncan said in a release.

“Like so many endeavors in Lloydminster, this project is moving forward through the collaboration and support of the Government of Saskatchewan, the Government of Alberta, and the local community,” LPSD Board Chair David Thompson added.
