New Schools Opening in the Far North

A couple of new schools will be opening their doors this week in
northwestern Ontario.

Cat Lake and Sandy Lake both have new educational facilities.

Kenora M.P. Greg Rickford says the Cat Lake funding announcement was
made last June and it took just over a year to complete the project.

Meanwhile, the school in Sandy Lake has undergone extensive repairs after
being damaged by a fire in February of 2012.

Rickford adds that
construction on a new school in Fort Severn is also underway.
