SURREY, B.C. – Two new Surrey, B.C. school projects are moving forward as part of British Columbia’s 2024 budget.
The two schools, a new Darts Hill area elementary school and an addition to Grandview Heights Secondary, are supported to begin planning as part of the budget.
Budget 2024 includes $3.75 billion for school capital projects over the next three years, including new and expanded schools, seismic upgrades and replacements, and land purchases for future schools, a release said.
In fall of 2023, B.C. also provided funding to start prefabricated additions at Walnut Road, Lena Shaw, and Woodland Park elementary schools to help meet increased enrolment in the school district.
The prefabricated classrooms will deliver 875 new seats and are expected to be ready for students this fall. School additions also opened at K.B. Woodward Elementary, Morgan Elementary, White Rock Elementary and Sunnyside Elementary with funding announced to expand Tamanawis Secondary, Guildford Park Secondary and Kwantlen Park Secondary school in 2023.
