Smiling faces were in abundance as Erie Migration District School opened its doors for the first time for both elementary and secondary students. Just over 900 students will be attending the elementary part of the school, while 750 students will be housed in the secondary section.
Greater Essex County District School Board Director of Education Vicki Houston indicated that the school is almost complete. Lines still need to be placed on the gymnasium floors and the tech rooms will require further placement of specialized equipment which should happen in the next few weeks.
The Ivanov family made their way to the new build and were clearly thrilled with what they saw. Andres Ivanov said, “I think it is amazing. It looks ready and the staff look well-organized.”
