Superintendent McLean visits our High Support programs

Superintendent McLean visits our High Support programs, creating moments of genuine connection. Seeing students naturally pull up chairs to chat with him engaged, comfortable, and excited shows the positive atmosphere these informal check-ins inspire.

Art Therapy Program

Mrs. Carre’s Grade 6 class took part in an Art Therapy program where students drew themselves as trees, using colours, roots, and tree size to express their personalities, values, and feelings.

Celebrating the CO-OP Program

We’re celebrating the success of our co-op program that supports students with special needs as they gain real-world work experience and increasing independence. Thanks to dedicated staff, supportive local businesses, and the hard work of students like Jesse and Michael MacKinnon, the program is becoming a strong pathway to confidence, inclusion, and future employment.
