  "summary": "Killarney School students in north Edmonton are temporarily relocating to Hardisty School following summer storm damage to their building. On July 15, an overnight thunderstorm caused significant damage to the roof and flooding in parts of the building, prompting Edmonton Fire Rescue crews, a custodial consultant, and a security guard to respond. While repairs have been underway, the two-storey section of the building will not be ready for the start of the academic year in September. As a result, all Grade 8 students, including those in the Grade 8 Opportunity class and English as an Additional Language classrooms, will move to Hardisty School, located about 7.5 km to the southeast across the North Saskatchewan River. Buses will provide transportation for students at no cost to families, and the school is urging drivers to exercise patience due to increased traffic around both schools. Edmonton Public Schools will provide further updates on Wednesday afternoon.",
