Valley View Public School, a small rural school located in the hamlet of Greenwood within Pickering, Ontario, has a rich history and deep roots in its community. The school has a long-standing history of excellence. The school is located next to the Greenwood Public Library, most noted for once being a one-room school house (Greenwood School) where the late Prime Minister John Diefenbaker attended as a child, and also where his father taught. The staff models a community of learners as they continue to work diligently on improving student achievement. They work as a team in professional learning communities to engage in sharing, refining and reflective practices.
