Our school is an inclusive, engaging and exciting place to learn, to have fun, and to make friends. The students learn to be healthy, ECO friendly and be confident in their academic knowledge and learning skills. We teach and value the principles of having a “Growth Mindset” so that students are developing resilience and stamina for demonstrating effort and perseverance in all that they do. Our goal is to build leadership skills in our students and to have a school culture that promotes collaboration, respectful interactions and problem solving strategies. Every child matters!
The Sherwood - Amberglen residential neighbourhood is in southeast Markham. An older, well-established neighbourhood, the area has parklands and green spaces almost surrounding it, with a commercial area along the northern boundary, which is Highway 7. Most of the housing is single-detached, many on fairly spacious lots, and with mature trees lining most streets. There is also a townhome complex.
