Land-based Learning

We are fortunate to be piloting the Land-based Learning project at our school. Our youngest children are able to learn in the ways their ancestors learned - from the land.

Elders in the School

Our students benefit from the presence of Elders in our school. Every two weeks, we welcome Elders to our hallways and classrooms, and encourage students to interact and share their learning.

RTI

Response to Intervention

Our school runs on a Response to Intervention model.  The RTI model ensures that students are meeting specific learning targets and that there are interventions/supports in place for those students struggling to meet specific targets and/or extension activities planned for those students who have already mastered the targets.

Youth Fusion

Lunch-time and after school activities are available to students through our partnership with Youth Fusion. Some of the activities include robotics, leadership development, media, and healthy living.

Kindergarten

Pre-K and Kindergarten are offered on site to 4 and 5 year olds.
