Principal's Message

 

On behalf of the entire staff we would like to welcome you to Dan Knott School.

Dan Knott School serves students from the Millwoods area and our dedicated staff is committed to all the learning needs of our students.  The school offers a variety of programs which include: Pre Advanced Placement, Regular Programming, Strategies, Literacy as well as Behavior and Learning Assistance.  Our students are held to high standards.  We have clear expectations for academics, citizenship and behavior with a focus on developing student leadership in a setting that is safe, welcoming and positive.

We strive to be a centre for excellence where we believe in developing the "whole" student.  Through our "Way In" program we are able to offer a network of resources that help us ensure the success of our students.  This excellent community partnership allows us to provide our students with access to a Success Coach, Healthy Living Coach, Aboriginal Commitment Coach, Mental Health Nurse and a Safe-Place Classroom.

Dan Knott students are encouraged to involve themselves in the numerous clubs and activities that take place at the school on a daily basis.  We have a number of sports teams at both the junior and senior levels to provide all our students with the opportunity to be involved in school sports.  A positive junior high experience is ensured when students are involved in their schools.

At Dan Knott we recognize the importance of parents as partners.  We encourage our community to visit the school, consult with the staff and participate in school functions to see firsthand our pride in the school.  This working partnership fosters a positive school environment where we are focused on teaching and learning and our students demonstrate their potential.

If you are interested in learning more about our school please do not hesitate to give us a call.
