Students are now back at a northern Alberta school where soot and ash residue from a massive wildfire earlier this year delayed the start of classes yesterday.
There was speculation Paddle Prairie School at the Paddle Prairie Metis Settlement could be closed until mid-September because of potential health concerns following the Chuckegg blaze.
But Alberta Health Services says air-quality tests from the weekend and yesterday found no issues with the building.
About 120 Paddle Prairie students were last in class on May 22nd.
