Valour JK-12 School is situated in the town of Petawawa and is a proud member of the Renfrew County District School Board (RCDSB). At our school, we take pride in developing the whole child and creating a safe and welcoming space for everyone. We have high academic expectations, respect our local community’s bilingual culture, embed character education within the classroom, and recognize the importance of developing strong community connections within the town and with Garrison Petawawa.
We provide a learning atmosphere that supports students in their chosen pathway while emphasizing the importance of collaboration and inquiry-based education. Rich learning activities and the integration of emerging technologies in the classroom will support the development of critical thinking skills required in our world today. Staff collaboration and ongoing professional learning will guide the journey of each student toward the successful achievement of their life goals. We will model Valour as our core character trait, and we will encourage our students to be creative, empathetic, courageous, compassionate and caring in all aspects of their lives.
Valour as a name and as a character value will be the essence of all that we do each day in our school. It will guide and give purpose to our lessons, our spirit, and our activities. Together, we will create citizens that will shape our community to be one of respect, care, empathy, and activism. Together, we will help all of our students find success in our world. Together, we will create our future. Valour Strong!
