Greentree School received a new portable classroom this month, and a Golden Hills School Division official told the Mail the unit is to replace an existing portable at the elementary school and was not added due to increased enrollment.
Building mover Dan Bilsborrow said these portable units are owned by Alberta Infrastructure and have been used in urban centres to accommodate growing attendance in suburban schools. Their modular construction of the units means they can be added and removed onto existing portables to adjust to changing enrollments in schools in the decades to come.
