A 15-year-old student accused of stabbing two staff members at a Halifax-area high school will stand trial for attempted murder next March.

The two victims—both employees of Charles P. Allen High School, in Bedford, N.S.—were taken to hospital with serious wounds on March 20 but have since recovered.
