Standout upgrades include revamped Learning Commons to enjoy at Delhi Public School, Pauline Johnson Collegiate and Vocational School and Grandview Public School, as well as new flooring and wall paneling in gymnasiums at Princess Elizabeth Public School and Lakewood Elementary School. 

Exterior enhancements encourage safe pick-up and drop-off procedures, particularly with a new driveway loop at J.L. Mitchener Public School and fresh paving at Mount Pleasant School, Jarvis Public School and Onondaga-Brant Public School. Additionally, sections of the roof were replaced at Dunnville Secondary School, Grandview Public School, James Hillier Public School, Lakewood Elementary School, Oakland-Scotland Public School, North Ward School, Bellview Public School and Cayuga Secondary School.

Several electrical panels and main services were replaced at Teeterville Public School, Walpole North Elementary School, Burford District Elementary School, Prince Charles Public School, Greenbrier Public School, Centennial-Grand Woodlands School and Waterford Public School.

HVAC and boiler updates to improve ventilation took place at King George School, Woodman-Cainsville School, Pauline Johnson Collegiate and Vocational School, Echo Place School, Walpole North Elementary School, Princess Elizabeth Public School, J.L. Mitchener Public School, École Dufferin, Bellview Public School, Seneca Central Public School, Brier Park Public School and Teeterville Public School.

Each investment was accomplished in support of Grand Erie’s Multi-Year plan to create safe, inclusive and comfortable spaces in which students feel empowered and ready to learn. Here’s to the start of another grand school year!

Grand Erie Special Education Games

On May the 20th our DD Class participated in Grand Erie’s first Special Education Games. The students got to take part in a variety of fun activities. Each activity had predetermined standards and the students were awarded ribbons for each event they took part in. Our students earned a variety of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and participant ribbons.

Our class took home 1st place in the “Create your Mascot Contest”, earning us a class pizza party! Class participants included; Kayden, Lilly, Jonathan, Spencer, Karlan, Jacob, Justyse, Hayley, Alyssa, and Stantone. We all really enjoyed the day.

Please meet our 1st place Mascot – Captain Cedarland Cyclone
