Nanaimo’s Rutherford Elementary School could reopen in the fall of 2025 to accommodate student population growth from planned new housing developments.
Rutherford school was built in 1964, and had additions up to 1981, and closed five years ago based on a projected continuing decline in student numbers and expansion of another school. At Randerson Ridge Elementary, to the southwest, non-kindergarten students who were not registered by the January date are now being asked to attend different schools.
As a result, Walsh said, the school is “actually in quite good condition,” although it has seismic issues, similar to a number of other area schools.
