Gordon Higgins Junior High School is located at the centre of the Rundle community near the pathway and greenbelt system of the community. The feeder elementary schools are Annie Foote, Cecil Swanson, and Rundle. Some of the students come from other schools to attend the Gifted and Talented Education program.

The Dr. Higgins Elementary School first served the community of Rundle in September 1976.
