Buchanan School

I have had 2 children at this school. (2016, ages 9 currelntly & previously attended age 16). Both kids have had positive experiences. - They are very hands on and have great teachers who work directly with your child's personal needs. They offer special needs learning. - Their classes are Kindergarten, grade 1/2/3 and grade 4/5. Multi-age classrooms encourage older children to help the younger ones and allowing kids to learn at their own learning level. - They take great pride in cultural traditions, especially aboriginal culture. Yearly creating new art projects that represent it. (Flutes, canoes, drums...) Elders come and work hand and hand with the kids, teaching and creating memories.

I am giving one star only because the choice for 0 stars is not available. no adult supervision for kids on patrol. This school is in need of improvement. Teachers seem to be there just to get paid. May 10th 2019 My son donated 20 dollars to the school as the slide was broken and the schools trying to gather donations to replace it. Today ,May 16th he asked for a receipt for said 20 dollars and was told," this is not a mall, we don't give receips" I encourage everyone that has had issue with this school to contact the school board and file a complaint and call or email our MLA, Steven Fletcher.

My siblings keep getting bullied and hurt constantly. Everyday they come home with new bruises.

Attended grade 1-5 . 1984-1988 good times.
