Our School is dedicated to providing the most current information about our work to improve student learning, realize our divisional priorities and to enhance our school community.

We want to share the goals of our School Plan to our community in a variety of ways.  Our @wpc91̽»¨app Twitter showcases all that happens in our school.  We post stories of interest to show what our Royals are doing in school and in the Community. 

Each year we set goals for our school that support our learning journey.  These goals are created by keeping students' learning in the centre of all we do.  Our plan reflects our beliefs about our school and community, and enhances our Royal culture. 

Our School Plan is based on the following goals:  

• To continue our work with using the beliefs of the Circle of Courage; Belonging, Mastery, Independence, Generosity.  These beliefs are at the core of everything we do in our school Influences our commitment to academics, athletics, visual and performing arts, and our practical arts areas.
• To build on the strengths of our diverse population within our student population and supporting our diverse programming.
• To link learning and mental well being in our school community.
• To enhance learning by infusing the use of the Microsoft 365 tools like Class Notebook and Assistive Technology.  By September 2020, we will have Grade 9 and 10 students "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD).
