Education

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

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 meeting was held in Birch Hills, they decided that the foundation was in good enough condition that it could be fixed.
