Principal's Message

Welcome to Brackendale Elementary School. We are a vibrant school community learning together on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Skwxwú7mesh Nation. At our school, we believe that diversity is a strength and inclusion is a right, and we strive to create a safe and inclusive environment where all students feel they belong. Our goal as a school is to ensure that all our students learn with dignity, purpose and options.

We are committed to providing a safe, high-quality learning experience focused on the individual needs of each student. We strive to empower our students to become creative problem-solvers, critical and innovative thinkers, and inspired learners ready to face the changing reality of the world they will inherit.
 
Continued parent engagement is critical through the grad program years and we encourage parents to actively communicate with staff, attend school functions and learning opportunities as well as attend Parent Advisory Council (PAC) meetings when possible. Be sure to check our website for meeting details.
 
As your school principal, I feel privileged to walk alongside your child during their time at Brackendale Elementary. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email - [email protected]
