We have a half day Kindergarten program as well as 2 system EES classes. Our school priority is to improve student achievement in literacy, enhance classroom assessment practices and infuse technology in all learning and disciplines. Classrooms are active places where our students use a variety of learning strategies and digital tools to develop an increased understanding of themselves as successful, independent learners. Students are supported through school wide literacy blocks, flexible groupings in multi-aged classrooms and team teaching environments. We offer daily physical education and access to other programs such as music. Our Library Learning Commons provides resources and supports to further enhance student learning on a daily basis. We offer extra-curricular activities such as office core, recycling club, chess club, and maker space club.
