Facilities Update: Wilkinson Roof Replacement

After careful study, it has been determined the roof on the north end of the school must be replaced to address ongoing leaks. Funding for this project has been approved by the TDSB.

Work is scheduled to start later in January, dependent on weather conditions. All due care and attention will be used to minimize disruptions though additional noise will be unavoidable in some cases.

Regular information will be provided as project schedules and progress updates become available. Please contact the WSCC with any questions. Your inquiry will be forwarded to the appropriate area for response.
