Dave Deibert, Saskatoon StarPhoenixThe start of the 2026-27 school year is in question for more than 1,000 Saskatoon students after a suspected case of arson at Bethlehem High School. “Together, with patience and grace, we will navigate the days ahead and ensure our students and staff are supported.” According to Hanlan Stroh, emergency crews “responded swiftly, and while the fire was successfully extinguished, the new portable classrooms sustained significant damage.” “Students, teachers and school staff are in my thoughts,” Mowat said in a Facebook post. According to the City of Saskatoon, the Shaw Centre civic facility — which sits in between Bethlehem High School and Tommy Douglas Collegiate — was not affected by the fire.
