In order to support the Board’s mission, the staff, students and parents of Walter Scott P.S. are committed to creating a warm, caring, and positive environment that encourages each student to develop his/her potential in academic, physical, social, emotional, cultural or moral aspects. To develop a self-motivated, self-directed problem solver, we believe in the education of the whole child, the demonstrations of courtesy, respect, and concern for others, and the development of each child’s self-worth and self-discipline. We believe in the protection of the physical environment, the development of positive attitudes for active participation in Canadian society, the development of an appreciation of the arts and physical fitness, and preparation for the future.
