Enrolment up at Kenora Catholic District School Board

Not a lot of empty space in the schools operated by the Kenora Catholic District School Board these days.

The school board is reporting an increase of 55 students over last year.

Director of Education, Phylis Eikre says the introduction of more all-day junior and senior kindergarten programs is only part of the  reason for the boost in enrolment.

Eikre says they have managed to either maintain or increase enrolment at all their schools this fall.

At Thomas Aquinas, there is an increase of about 10 students over last year.

Total enrolment is 1,583 students.
