School division dismisses daycare in Gronlid
After what seemed like a done deal, Gronlid is still without a day care.
The Northeast School Division (NESD) has rejected a proposal for a licensed daycare in the town just north of Melfort. The 20 space centre was intend for the now vacant Grades nine to 12 wing of the Gronlid School, as those grades have been discontinued.
Lindsay Cochran, the vice-chair of the Gronlid Little Giggles Daycare, said when the daycare committee met with the school board it was, on the whole, positive.
“We were feeling like we were in negotiations as far as a lease agreement and then a couple weeks later… stating that for various reasons… they would be unwilling to rent us the space,” Cochran said.
