Welcome Note
On behalf of the Lester B. Pearson School Board I
would like to welcome your family to the exciting adventure of
attending a brand new school in the upcoming 2011-2012 school
year! We hope that you will enjoy your new school and take part
in many activities. As a staff we will be looking forward to
sharing many learning opportunities, special events and exciting
activities with you as a school community.
As a school team, we will be committed to helping your child or
children develop to the best of their potential and ability. We
will help them to grow and participate responsibly as young
citizens in the school’s programs and activities so that the
school year will be a rewarding and enjoyable experience.
Our staff will be comprised of full-time and part-time teaching
personnel, as well as support staff. The school will be equipped
with a library, a computer lab and smartboards in each
classroom, a cafeteria/polyvalent area, music studio and art
room, resource room, as well as a full size gymnasium and
playgrounds that will have fun and challenging apparatus. The
school will offer day-care service which also includes a lunch
program.
The academic program that will be offered is Français Plus,
which as a program provides the same percentage of French
instruction as the Early French Immersion program does but
continues into Cycle 2. For the year of 2011/2012, students
enrolled in grade 4 will continue their math instruction in
English as they have already begun that process. All students in
grade 3 and below will be following the Français Plus program.
All curricula are prescribed by the Ministry of Education in the
Quebec Education Program.
