We think of our school as a comprehensive place where students come to learn. Our slogan "A Great Place to Learn" incorporates what we believe is an atmosphere that is a positive, stimulating, and rewarding learning environment for children.

At present, we have a faculty of twenty-two along with a number of support personnel, including students assistants, and we offer a range of programs including French, Physical Education, Technology, and Music. All students are mainstreamed yet we have Individual Student Support Plans for students. We also have a fairly comprehensive program meeting the individual needs of a number of mentally and physically challenged students.

Our vision for the future includes a full and comprehensive program for technology education. At this point in time our school is fully networked using Windows NT . Our Learning Resources Centre houses six IBM compatible computers used primarily for resource-based learning, utilizing the ATHENA electronic card catalogue system. Each classroom and learning centre has an IBM compatible networked computer. We also have a fully functional computer lab consisting of twenty-nine IBM compatible computers.
