26 years ago, a group of parents decided they wanted an return to the 3 R's of education, focused on traditional teaching styles. Alberta Education gave us permission to start a new public school, that wasn't a part of the larger divisions. Charter Schools have their own elected school boards and styles of learning. Ours is Direct Instruction: traditional education with homework and uniforms. In the last 10 years, we've infused technology in a thoughtful way as a tool that has its place in learning, just like a pencil. Every classroom has advanced smartboards and a 1:1 chromebook ratio, as well as our Learning Commons boasting robots and a 3-D printer. Students are prepared to be active learners prepared for their futures.
