The College of the Rockies has completed a campus expansion at its Invermere campus, which shares space with David Thompson Secondary School (DTSS). As part of the partnership between the two schools, COTR took over the high school’s art room and modernized it to meet the college’s needs for skills training programs. In return, COTR constructed a brand new art room for the high school. “Rocky Mountain School District No. 6 was thrilled with the final project,” said Assistant Superintendent Steve Wyer. “A state-of-the-art space for student creative design will ensure students have ongoing opportunities to explore all of the mediums of art and visual design.” The project received $2.8M from the Government of British Columbia.
