Annie L. Gaetz and Oriole Park will be hosting a full-day kindergarten open house for interested families.

Red Deer Public Schools is expanding its program choices for the 2023/2024 school year. This includes having the Kindergarten Academy of Discovery, which will provide full-day kindergarten at a cost of $500 a month to families.

The no-cost option of regular morning or afternoon kindergarten programs will also continue to be available to families at Red Deer Public Schools.

The Kindergarten Academy of Discovery program will be offered in English at Annie L. Gaetz Elementary and at École Oriole Park Elementary for families choosing French learning.

An Open House will be held at both schools on Monday, April 3, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Anyone wanting to learn more can attend.

“As Red Deer Public continues to enhance our programming, and meet the needs and interest of students and families, we continue to… build on existing choices and offer new opportunities,” said Nicole Buchanan, board chair for Red Deer Public Schools.
