Subject: Support the Regional School Project to Address Critical Educational Needs
Dear Mayor and Council Members,
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the lack of progress in addressing the urgent need for additional high school learning space in Warman. For years, Warman High School has operated at full capacity, and this issue was formally acknowledged in 2022. Despite having ample time to explore alternative solutions, no viable plans have been presented. Now, we are at a breaking point, and decisive action must be taken.
The regional joint-use middle years-high school project, proposed by Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) and Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools (GSCS), and supported by the Government of Saskatchewan, presents the most realistic and feasible solution to meet our community's critical educational needs. The Government of Saskatchewan has ranked this project among the 2025-26 Ministry of Education Top 10 Major Capital Priorities, underscoring its importance. However, without the City of Warman’s support, the project cannot move forward, leaving our students and families without the infrastructure they need to thrive.
Regional schools are a proven model that provides necessary learning spaces while also offering facilities for specialized programs, such as dedicated shop classrooms. The proposed joint-use school is a collaborative and practical solution to Warman’s growing demand for educational resources. With no alternative options on the table, supporting this project is not only critical but also an opportunity to demonstrate leadership and commitment to the future of our community.
As elected officials, the residents of Warman are looking to you to act in the best interests of our children and families. Warman has built its reputation as a family-friendly city, yet the failure to address the high school capacity crisis threatens that image. The time to act is now. By supporting this project, you have the chance to ensure our students have access to the education they deserve and to reaffirm Warman’s dedication to its residents.
I respectfully urge you to prioritize the regional school project as the most realistic and effective way to address this pressing issue. As a resident of Warman, I am committed to working alongside the city and other stakeholders to ensure this solution becomes a reality.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and hope for a positive resolution that benefits our community.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
