School Safety

Our Lady Immaculate Catholic School participates in the Safe Arrival Program. Students in Grade 6 participate in the Values, Influences and Peers (VIP) program. There is a before and after school program for younger students available when both parents work. The school has instituted initiatives to reduce bullying.

There is a Safe Schools Committee made up of teachers, parents and administrators, who meet during the year to address safety issues. The school follows a strict Code of Conduct introduced last year, as well as an Anti-Bullying oath and an anonymous reporting system.
