The district hopes to have the 800-student school at 4900 Dawson Street open by September 2028.

A new elementary school to relieve overcrowding in Burnaby's rapidly growing Brentwood neighbourhood is one step closer to reality with official support from the province announced this month.

Secretary-treasurer Ishver Khunguray said the district got a letter from the ministry just before spring break announcing the province's support for the project. The new school is needed to take pressure off existing schools in the area and to accommodate anticipated enrolment growth from the many new towers planned.
