Update for all students and school families

March 18, 2020 -- Message from Director of Education, Greg Enion.

Over the past few days, our everyday routines of school, work and learning have been first disrupted and now cancelled. As many of us are parents, we too have had many of the feelings of uncertainty and concern.

The absence of information often creates anxiety. To keep all our school families informed. I would like to share some information that your school division does have. Please know that we do not yet have any information relating to what's next for students, especially those requiring credits, or who are graduating this year. My promise to you is that we will share this information, the moment we have it.

With respect to our schools:

Increasing graduation rates announced.

Regina Public Schools is pleased to announce significant increases in graduation rates in the 2016-17 school year and increases over the past 7 years.

The on-time graduation rate (three years to graduate from Grade 10 to 12) for all Regina Public Schools students increased from 74 percent in 2015-16 to 79 percent in 2016-17. That is an increase of five percent. First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students saw an on-time graduation increase of 11 percent from 42 percent in 2015-16 to 53 percent in 2016-17.  On-time graduation rates for non-First Nations, Métis and Inuit students increased from 81 percent in 2015-16 to 85 percent in 2016-17, which equals the provincial average of four percent.
