History

Named after the residential neighbourhood it was constructed in. The neighbourhood is named after the original land owner, Robert McKernan (1846-1908). McKernan and his younger brother James helped with the development of the Dominion Telegraph between Hay Lakes and Edmonton. In 1878, McKernan constructed his home at the site of the current McKernan Elementary-Junior High School. Additions were added to the school in 1953 and 1973.
