Safe Schools Initiatives
Our SRO, Abe Kaazan, is a tremendous resource for students and families.

Our students receive Traffic Safety Presentations, Fire Safety Presentations, and Ottawa Hydro Safety Presentations through community agencies.
Student Well-being
Our Goal is for every student in every classroom to feel a strong sense of well-being and connectedness as a result of learning and living in a school environment that is welcoming, equitable, inclusive, and respectful; a place where every student is encouraged to take risks, be creative, and be innovative in a learning culture that is caring and safe; a place where conditions enable all students to achieve, to the best of their abilities, and be successful in all aspects of learning and life.
