Welcome to Whitchurch
Highlands Public School! We are a small school in a rural area of York
Region, surrounded by nature and bordered by a small forest and farms. We
have plenty of room for our students to play, explore nature and
participate in sports.
Our students strive
to reach their personal best and learn about each of the YRDSB Character
Traits to support their growth. They hard-working and enjoy
leadership opportunities, clubs and teams. Our students are taught to
be critical thinkers and upstanding citizens and to recognize that every
kind act, no matter how small makes a difference.
Students and staff
work together to build and maintain inclusive and welcoming environments
throughout our school. To ensure every student feels safe, cared
for and included is our work and focus every day. We believe that
this is everyone’s responsibility. Our daily announcements, assemblies,
activities, lessons, clubs and student-led initiatives aim to give everyone
the tools they need to build a culture of care and acceptance.
We have a very
supportive parent community who are involved in many activities -
School Council, volunteers in the classrooms, support for academic
learning, and supervisors during our lunch hour. We strive to build strong
partnerships with all our parents and welcome their support and
involvement.
Here at Whitchurch
Highlands P.S. we recognize that are all members of the W.H.P.S. Wolf Pack
and we demonstrate this by supporting one another, being inclusive, being
responsive and by demonstrating respect. Although we are proud of our
accomplishments, we strive to improve every day.
Welcome to our
school!
