Construction of the new Grande Prairie Composite High School has completed on schedule.

Facilities will be welcoming new students in fall, 2022.

The school features a new Science Lab, and will hold approximately 1,600 students from grade 9-12.

The estimated cost of the project was $78.5 million.

“I am excited to celebrate the opening of the new Composite High School and to see students and teachers enjoying this fantastic facility. I want to wish students and staff years of excellence in learning in the new Comp and I know this will benefit the whole community as more Grande Prairie students are prepared for their post-secondary pursuits, whether they include further academic studies or enter directly into career paths.”

Tracy Allard—MLA for Grande Prairie

 

“As Albertans, we all understand the importance of providing our students with a strong, well-supported education that provides the foundations for a successful life. This new High School in Grande Prairie provides the critical infrastructure for that learning to take place, and I look forward to seeing many generations pass through this new facility.”
