The joint-use schools project was the largest schools build in Saskatchewan history. There were 18 elementary schools completed on-time and on-budget in less than two years. A public and Catholic school are attached on each of 9 sites, with community space and a daycare in the middle. Local divisions own and staff the schools and determine community access – just like everywhere else. They are made to be fully decorated by teachers and played in by kids. Designed based on the feedback of students and teachers, they are open-concept and ultramodern. They feature in-floor heating, walls that open and close to adjust learning environments, outdoor classrooms, and main staircases that double as auditorium spaces. Watch how future users got to design their schools! Construction provided a major boost to the local economy.

With construction over, the JUMP team will now maintain the schools in good condition for 30 years as part of the fixed price contract (repairing roofs, replacing carpets, and so on). Think of it like a long-term warranty.
