About Us

Mission Statement

AT EP:

We believe in the dignity, value, and worth of each individual, and strive to create a democratic and caring community that cultivates and actively works towards equity, anti-oppression, and reconciliation.

Our goal is to create conditions for all students to engage in purposeful learning and experience meaningful success in order to achieve a sense of self-worth and contribute positively to the world around them. We actively seek to understand the complex and rich identities of self and other.

We are stronger together!

Values:

  • We belong.

  • We believe in each other.
  • We can do hard work together.
