I delivered computer equipment there today. Yes they plan to open for the school year. No doubt there will be finishing touches happening but they will get there. I remember when Pomeroy opened several years ago, I was there the week before Labour Day and thought no way were they going to be ready and they did. Same thing with that other school in that neighbourhood that opened last year, I think I even posted here that there was no way (and this was a couple months out I think) and they opened.
