November 19, 2025—Regina Public Schools, Regina Catholic Schools and Regina Minor Football officially launched the Regina Football Academy today at Leibel Field.

Regina Football Academy (RFA) is a new learning and skill-building initiative for Regina-area Grades 9, 10 and 11 students that promotes perfection of football proficiency and successful completion of academic and elective learning requirements.

The RFA program, set to begin in Semester 2 of the 2026–2027 school year, will give students the opportunity to earn high school credits while playing their favourite game—practising and perfecting football skills under the guidance of experienced coaches and educators.

Severe weather is a way of life in Saskatchewan. In Regina, in the late fall and winter, it gets cold and road conditions can be treacherous. There are severe weather conditions that include snow, ice, blizzards and windchill that we have come to expect.

Going to school is also a way of life for our students and staff, regardless of the weather. Very rarely are Regina Public schools closed during a regular school day. Even in a blizzard! School buses and transportation similarly will run in most temperatures and conditions.

Kiskinwahmatowin (learning together) is a full school-year program, through a partnership with K+S Potash Corp Canada, for Grades 6/7 students who want to spend their year learning the curriculum through land-based experiences. The students develop their leadership skills, find their passion, spend time connecting to the land and experience a hands-on approach to education.
