Lazerte to study educational finance in the Province and all matters relating to the support and improvement of education training facilities. The three Schools taught Grades I-X inclusive until 1962. That year Athena Regional High School was built in Summerside and all the pupils from Grade VII-XII in Upper Freetown , and those from IX-XII in Lower Freetown , were bused to the Athena School. Before this school was built, students wishing to take Grade XI and XII usually went to Summerside , Kensington High School or Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown . Students in the South Freetown District had a choice of attending Kinkora High School or Athena Regional High School. In 1969-70 Lower Freetown students of Grade VII and VIII went to North Bedeque school by special arrangement between the schools and the Department of Education. In 1970-71 the students in these grades from Lower Freetown began attending classes in the Athena Regional High School. Students who wished to attend the Vocational School, now Holland College, were able to travel on the same bus system. It was on 1 July 1972 that the five regional high school units in the province took over the operation and administration of all local school districts in the province. The Freetown School districts were incorporated into Unit Two. The original plan was for one large Senior High School in the Unit . However, the Regional Districts of Kinkora and Kensington did not agree to this proposition. Three Oaks Senior High School was built near Summerside with Athena, Miscouche , and Summerside High School participating. Kinkora and Kensington managed to maintain their own high schools but students in those districts wishing to secure vocational training were bused to Summerside to Vocation High School. Students from South Freetown continued to have a choice between Kinkora and Three Oaks. All the local district schools were closed as of July 1,1972, and all Elementary and Junior High students in the and Schools were bused to Summerside . Students in the elementary grades in South Freetown were to attend classes in Kinkora , with the junior high and high school students having a choice of going to Kinkora or Summerside .
