Thanks but no thanks.
That's the response from the Kenora Catholic District School Board to an offer by the local public school board to amalgamate two schools in Keewatin.
The Keewatin-Patricia District School Board made the offer to merge Keewatin Public and St. Louis Schools as a means to combat declining enrolment.
The separate board has issued a formal response which indicates its not interested in engaging in any amalgamation of school either from within its own jurisdiction or with the Keewatin-Patricia School Board.
The public school board began looking at options for Keewatin Public School during an Accommodation
Review last year.
Enrolment at the school is expected to continue to drop over the next few years.
