We switched schools 2 years ago and did not know what to expect…read more We have 2 children enrolled and are very, very happy with the move. It was nerve wracking not knowing what it would be like. The teachers the kids have had are amazing and go above and beyond. The VP and Principal have been very transparent and honest when asking questions. I am very impressed at how well the faculty work together. You can tell that the teachers are happy, it really comes across in the communication to parents and the activities they put on to involve the parents with their children. I especially enjoyed Family Math Night. I now participate in the parent council and help out where I can (I work FT so don't have a lot of time). I am very happy with the Leader In Me practice they have adopted and love that the kids are encouraged to start and participate in their own clubs. Now having 2 years in this school, I can confidentially say this school faculty and staff are amazing. We are very happy here.

This school has gone down hill in the last 3 years in terms of discipline. They have gone…read more"Militant" as one parent put it. Kids can not be kids in this school. They do not focus on the positive just on the negative and the main focus of the school is to send kids to the office for every little thing from standing up at lunch hour to talking, to rolling your eyes, to doing absolutely nothing wrong. Their main focus in this school is not to nuture your self esteem, it is not to bring the best out in our children, and it is not to come up with positive solutions. They hire people (parents-who have absolutely no training) to help out with our children during recess and lunch hours and these people have absolutely no training when it comes to chilren's behaviours. These same people also lack patience. This school likes to think that they are doing but they are not. The prinicpal is very hard to work with, she can not understand things from the child's point of view. I have actually heard her yell at a child when he was trying to explain his situation. She thinks she is right and no one can change her mind. Parents can not deal with her either-many have said she is impossible-this school does not have a positive atmosphere-they focus on the negative and discipline-do not send your child here. i have pulled my girls out because of this-the kids in this school are hating school, the teachers are negative and they do not work well with the child. There are a few individual teachers that really do enjoy working with children but the ones that have been there for a very long time-it is time they move on a now they have absolutely no patience. The music teacher did not even teach music???? the majority of the kids spends time in the "think tank" as all the kids know the detention room-the principal does not say the kids do not get punished.....but yet they get kicked out for the dumbest things-they have a Zero tollerance policy for any "misbehaviour" but this school deserves a Zero for the way they treat our children. If you are considering this school-please talk to as many parent s as you can-Ms. Busby will smile and make it look like a great school-but the minute you need to actually talk to her-she will not budge and she is a very rude woman and very difficult to work with. As a principal it would be nice to have someone to work with and who is willing to work with your child when situations arise. DO NOT PUT YOUR CHILD IN THIS SCHOOL UNLESS IT REALLY IS YOUR LAST RESORT!!!!!!!!!

I won't tell any lies here. I researched this school a couple of years ago when I moved into the…read morearea. I was really disappointed. The staff I encountered were unkind and offered unsolicited advice on parenting. Recently, I discovered that the school has had some program changes in the past year so I took another tour of the facility. This school is an "older school". The age and design reflect this fact. It's a bit physically "dark". I however met one of the teachers in the parking lot for the program I was inquiring about. She was wonderful and proud of her school and students. The vice principle of the school was very helpful and had a kind and patient quality about her. I have yet to meet the head of the school but my experience the second time around was a lot more positive and had more of the nurturing qualities I would hope to find in an elementary school.

Their band program is pretty good tho and we get to go on band trips. They could def get less kids but that's kinda the government's problem. The only drugs I've seen are vaping and caffeine which is pretty good for a school, I did get kicked out of the weight room for deadlifting 225 and got a one year ban from it. Over all it's like it's like a pretty average school,

In between classes the hallways are so crowded you can not get through them and will then be marked late for class. Luckily in this school I personally have only seen drugs (asides from caffeine) used in a school bathroom once.

The IB and academy is good too, one of the best if not the best in the city. The academy kids tend to be a wild though, but mostly their chill people, who don't tend to go out of there way to ruin another persons day. IB kids live in there world, and Academy kids live in there own world too, it's a school that tends to a child's needs in every shape and form!

The school even has great volunteer-run extras like the Skipping Club and the always excellent Strategic Gaming Club. The Academic Challenge programs leads to Steele Heights Jr. High and M.E. LaZerte Sr. High School later on. Although we haven't used it they do have an Out-of-School-Care program on site. If you are looking for a school in the Londonderry/McLeod area it is well worth a look.
