About Us
Prince Charles Elementary School provides a positive, supportive and nurturing educational environment that fosters and encourages high academic standards. Prince Charles Elementary is in its 40th year of operation having first opened its doors in November 1984.
The school is home to just over 280 students in Kindergarten to Grade 5. Families that choose Prince Charles in Kindergarten seldom leave. We have many students who call Prince Charles home from Kindergarten to Grade 5. We also have a professional staff that provides consistent teaching and plans for students’ long term success. The school uses the foundation of the Virtues project to help teach social responsibility and build student's character. A highly involved parent group supports the school through an active P.A.C., classroom volunteers, coordinating the Fruits and Vegetable Program, and community projects such as the successful Stream of Dreams initiative.
Prince Charles is equipped with the latest technology to help teach and engage students in the classroom. These include smart boards, iPads, document cameras and laptops. The staff have been actively involved in discovering ways to enhance student learning and global awareness through the use of Twitter, class websites, email, and Skype.
At Prince Charles Elementary School we strive to be: an interactive community of lifelong learners dedicated to achieving individual potential.
