The new James L. Dunn Public School in the former International Playing Card factory on Mercer Street will open its doors to students on Tuesday.

“James L. Dunn PS is a unique building combining old and new architecture. We are excited for everyone to see it, and we are very grateful to the government of Ontario and the Ministry of Education for supporting our students, staff and the entire school community,” said Director of Education Erin Kelly.

The new school was built using the existing heritage building and replaced the Giles Campus French Immersion school.

It features 645 new student spaces, four childcare rooms and 73 new childcare spaces, costing $15.4 million to build.

“The completion of the new James L. Dunn Public School is exciting news for our community as we continue to support new, modern schools for students in Windsor,” said Andrew Dowie, MPP for Windsor—Tecumseh.
