Hillhurst Community School, Calgary, AB

- We have two programs in the school: a kindergarten to grade 6 community program and a grade 4 to 6 gifted and talented program (GATE). There are no significant boundaries evident between programs as we consider ourselves one united team of leaders and learners.- The GATE program is a CBE program that draws from Areas I, II, and III; the community program has enrollment restricted to our boundaries (generally the community of Hillhurst - see map K-6)- Through collaborative community efforts, we provid enriched learning experiences that foster academic excellence and develop active, responsible, compassionate citizens.- We pride ourselves on having a strong, supportive community of students, parents & teachers who work together for the safety & security of our students.- We have a very active and supportive School Council.- Our students, parents and staff undertake many charitable works.
