Nutana Collegiate provides diverse, welcoming learning community

December 20, 2016

indigenous_web.jpgOur school motto β€” "Working together towards personal success in a safe, caring, and respectful learning community"β€” lets everyone know the kind of place Nutana Collegiate is.

We inspire learning by providing support through our many services, valuing our students' voices and creating a strong sense of belonging. We develop strong student-staff relationships through concentrated time spent together in our quarter system. We make learning relevant by including our students in their learning plans and by partnering with the community in our work. By individualizing learning and other supports, we strive to respond to students' interests and needs.

Students tell us that they feel like they "belong" at Nutana. They are encouraged to develop skills that will empower them in the future.

Our community partners tell us that they appreciate working with our students and staff and are amazed at the commitment and skills of our students. We are proud of the many accomplishments of our Nutana family β€” both students and staff! We know we are making a difference for individuals and the community.

DIVERSE COMMUNITY

Alongside our teaching staff, Nutana has many support staff and services that are here to support our students in their success. The Integrated School-Linked Services (ISLS) team includes a nurse practitioner, mental health and addictions counsellor, social worker, stay-in-school coordinator, community coordinator and a police liaison officer.

Programs available at Nutana Collegiate include UPLIFT, a program to engage and empower youth to have a voice in their community. There is a breakfast program in the UPLIFT Lounge provided by the Salvation Army, the Jacoby Centre is a student-parent support program, and the school also offers Millie's Early Learning Centre.

We are culturally responsive to student needs with opportunities in our Cultural Centre, classroom content, school events and in the community for our First Nations, Inuit and MΓ©tis students and new Canadian students.
