Our school supports learning for all members of our school family, and we are committed to creating a welcoming environment for all. wâhkôhtowin offers numerous learning opportunities and activities, some of which include an award-winning literacy program, hands-on math initiatives, extensive arts education programming, an emphasis on research skills and outdoor learning programs.

Our School Community Council (SCC) actively provides input into the education of our students. We invite parents to become members of the SCC and to help contribute to the life and vitality of the school. We are a nutrition-positive and nut-aware school that promotes healthy lifestyle choices. We provide an emergency breakfast and lunch program for families who are struggling with food security and a healthy universal snack to aid in student learning.

Our staff, students and community adhere to the motto, "Keys to Success Through Respect, Responsibility and Positive Relationships." We strive to create a safe, warm environment where all students and families feel welcome and valued.
