SD68 facilities plan approved, Rae elected to 2nd year as Board Chair

The Nanaimo – Ladysmith School Board has approved a new facilities plan, after the closures and amalgamations got the nod from its Business Committee Tuesday night.

Rutherford Elementary will close, once the District builds a new wing at Frank Ney.
