Red Deer Hill has an elementary school called Osborne. It is located on Osborne Road and is a part of the Saskatchewan Rivers School Division.

Osborne opened in the late 1960s. It at one time had over 200 students. It is now down to about 95.

Religion[edit]

Halcro has an Anglican church with a cemetery. The church is called St. Andrew's and located on Halcro Church Road. Early in 2006, the church was vandalized and the consensus was to demolish it. But after a meeting was held in Birch Hills, they decided that the foundation was in good enough condition that it could be fixed.
