Welcome
Welcome to École Our Lady of the Prairies School. We are a dual track school, offering English Programming K-6 and French Immersion Programming for students K-4. Our French Immersion program will gradually gain, a grade each year, until 2009 with grade six. Students in grades 4 to 6, enrolled in our English track, take French as a Second Language as per scribed by Alberta Learning.
"To learn, to work, to live fully, and to serve God in one another" are keynotes of our school's philosophy. Through our liturgical celebrations, our extra-curricular clubs, our dedicated staff, and the permeation of core values throughout the curriculum, we ensure that your children are gaining the skills and knowledge required to lead successful lives.
École Our Lady of the Prairies School maintains high standards of academics and discipline. We have very high expectations of our students and we provide them with the tools necessary to experience success in spiritual, academic and social levels. Students are encouraged to do their personal best.
We have a strong literacy component, with reading being our focus. We encourage parents to be involved with their children literacy development. Research indicates that parents who are involved in their child's academic life contribute greatly to their child's progress in school. We have expanded our library to reflect our reading program.
Our school environment is welcoming and we encourage parent involvement. Highlighting on our Catholicity enables the spiritual growth in our students.
