Holy Family Elementary School - About Us

 

Background

Holy Family School was opened in February, 1987 to replace the former Immaculate Conception School on St. Thomas Line. At the time of opening, it served students from Kindergarten to Grade 8. With the steady growth of the school community, Holy Family was re-configured to a Kindergarten to Grade 6 school to begin the 2003-2004 school year.

Holy Family Elementary is part of the Eastern School District of Newfoundland and Labrador and presently has a student population of 715 from K-6. There are currently 46 members of the teaching staff and 9 support staff assigned to the school.

Currently the school offers English programming from K-6 with an Intensive Core French program offered in Grade 6. In September 2005, an Early French Immersion stream began with the 2005-06 Kindergarten students. Early French Immersion is now offered in Grades K, 1, 2, 3 and 4.
