Nowhere as bad as the new MHS, but the location (next door to another golf course) means that the majority of students will have to be bussed in. Would've been more central and convenient for lots of families to build it on Pascal just west or northwest of the Aquatic Centre (though I realize that land would likely have been expensive to acquire).

I was a little confused as to the actual location of the new school, so I took a drive over to the area to find out.
It is
not at 1600 Dieppe Blvd (across from the Fox Creek Golf Course pro shop). It's located on that little stubby extension of Dieppe Blvd to the
south of the new Dieppe fire hall. You can get a feeling for the location from this photo from the announcement ceremony.
The location is here:
In other words, it's more like the francophone version of Moncton High School than you thought!
I imagine they will extend Dieppe Blvd all the way through to LeBlanc Road as part of this project.........
