COLD LAKE SCHOOL RECONFIGURATION 

Cold Lake School Configuration is underway for students. CLMS, NHS and ASAA student representatives had their first Student Steering Committee Meeting at the Energy Centre on November 23. They spent the day exploring and building new and strong foundations for CLMS which will become grades 7-9 school in the 2023-2024 school year.  The students had fun meeting new people and learned about how to work together for their educational journey.
