School Philosophy

At John Barnett School we believe our greatest gift is the diversity of our students and community. 

We celebrate our students by creating a safe and welcoming environment where every child can flourish and feel proud of themselves. 

We are committed to our Division Mission of inspiring student success through high quality learning opportunities, supported by meaningful, engaged students, families and staff.   

 Our parent community is vital in the success of all our students. We strive to build strong relationships between staff, students and families.  

All students will ensure that John Barnett is a safe and welcoming school for all students, staff and families by :

• coming to school each day ready to learn and allow others to do the same
• respecting the health and safety of others
• respecting the individual choices of others and taking responsibility for their own choices .
• respecting the rights of others and their property.
