Safe Schools Initiatives

The Elgin Street Public School Code of Conduct is published to all members of the school community on a regular basis and is reviewed annually by staff, and School Council. The Code outlines the expectations for behaviour of parents, staff, visitors, and students. The goal of our Code is the education of all in order to assist in the provision of a caring, safe and secure school.

To assist further with a Safe and Secure School environment, the school devotes much of the first week of school to the education of students about “R.I.S.E.” as a processes to help students deal with issues. Throughout the year ongoing regular class meetings in every grade continue support of this focus. As well, drama workshops, assemblies, theme days, and individual teacher-student contacts keep Elgin Street Public School a wonderful safe place for all.

School Success Plans and Initiatives

At Elgin Street Public School we work together as a community of learners: students, staff, and parents. Our goal is to improve  literacy and numeracy for all of our students. Elgin Street is fortunate to have extra support in this initiative and we offer the Lexia Literacy Program, Early Intervention instruction for Grade 1 & 2 students and Empower for reading instruction for older students.
