School upgrades delay classes in Clyde

Quluaq school students received an extra week of summer holidays due to renovation delays at their school. Seventeen new classrooms, a new gym and new workshop area were added this summer.

Instead of starting school on Aug. 23, the community’s 320 students from Kindergarten to Grade 12 started classes on Sept. 3.

Workers are still waiting for final supplies from the last sealift of the year. Students will be without a gym until the ship arrives.

Quluaq co-principal Jukeepa Hainnu said renovations and additions have changed the look of the school and given staff and students more room to learn.

"We were so short of space we were holding classes in the hallways. Now, it’s a very modern building, very unique," Hainnu said.

Hainnu expected the work to be finished by the end of September.
