Grande Prairie & District Catholic Schools
About
Grande Prairie & District Catholic Schools is a learning community for anyone seeking a quality Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12 Catholic education.
The Division covers a geographical area that includes the regional communities of Grande Prairie, Beaverlodge, Fairview, Sexsmith & Spirit River. We currently have 13 schools under our care. We are a team of approximately 700 full-time, part time and casual staff who provide quality teaching and learning experiences for approximately 5600 students.
Your child’s education should not be the same as their classmate's. Why? Your child has unique gifts and deserves teachers who seek opportunities for progress, every school day.
Catholic schools offer this and more by not only pursuing academic excellence but excellence in all pursuits.
Of course, academic achievement is important in every school. However, academic achievement alone does not define success in our world. We explore the 10 Catholic Social Teaching principles and they guide our delivery of the authorized Alberta Program of Studies.
