The Kelsey School Division announced that Margaret Barbour Collegiate and Mary Duncan Junior High will run staggered sessions when The Pas schools open on September 7. Harold Grundy, the superintendent, said the plan avoids grades 1 to 6 staggerings, affects about 1 000 students, and reduces lunch break to 15 minutes to ease traffic. The arrangement requires 53 teachers across both campuses and uses four buses to service 163 Mary Duncan and M.B.C.I. pupils, with early starts at 5:30 a.m. and return by 8:00 p.m.
