The Holy Family Roman Catholic Separate School Division saw an increase in enrolment as of opening day of class on Sept. 3, with St. Michael and St. Olivier schools accounting for most of it.
Shown above is the board of trustees for Holy Family.
Overall, the school division had an increase of 13 students from the projection made to the Ministry of Education last year, and it’s up by 26 students compared to enrolment as of Sept. 30, 2018, with a total of 1,395 students at five schools, plus home-based students.
The official enrolment for the school year for the ministry is taken on Sept. 30 for grant purposes, and division officials expect there may be some minor changes in enrolment by that date.

Sacred Heart School in Estevan had 377, down from the projected level of 392, but up from last year’s official enrolment of 367.
St. Mary’s in Estevan had 291 students on opening day, up one from their projected enrolment, and up from 287 on Sept. 30 last year.
