Background
Ecole
St. Patrick High School is dual track, English and French
Immersion, 9-12 school with a population of 525 students.
We are very diverse in our demographics. Approximately 35%
of our population is aboriginal. In 1995, we moved into
our new St. Patrick High School, a state-of-the-art facility.
Our 1997 External School Review highlighted many of our
achievements and indicated that we possess the key ingredients
of a highly effective school: innovation in technology,
a well respected staff, community-based partnerships, a
student-centered approach to learning and a Christian focus.
Philosophy
Ecole St. Patrick
High School is dedicated to assisting our students to
determine their capabilities and helping them to develop
their gifts and qualities to their fullest potential. The
staff of Ecole St. Patrick High Schoolset high standards
and high expectations for the school and its students. The
school enjoys a proud history based on living out its motto:
"Let your light shine." The staff believes that
learning does not occur solely within the confines of the
school. Learning is nurtured, supported and developed within
the home, the parish and the community at large. Education,
therefore, is a partnership among students, parents, teachers
and community professionals and volunteers.
