welcome to st. basil school

 

St. Basil School is home to two of the most unique programs offered to students in Edmonton Catholic Schools.

For over twenty-five years, our Jan Paweł II Polish Bilingual-Program has been considered to be a fantastic place for students to immerse themselves in Polish language and culture.  We are the only Polish Bilingual school in North America.

We integrate language and culture by celebrating important events like Dożynki (Harvest Festival), Andrzejki, Wszytkich Świętych (All Saints' Day), Remembrance Day, Mikolaj (St. Nicholas' Day), Opłatek (Holy Wafer), Tłusty Czwartek (Fat Thursday before Lent), and Trzeciego Maja (May 3rd - Polish Constitution Day).  We ensure that we are always honoring and building strong relations with the Edmonton Polish community.

The other program we offer is the Jean Forest All Girls Leadership Academy.  The mission of the academy is; “To provide the finest Christ-centred learning environment which inspires young women to develop spirit, leadership, intellect, self-discovery and service.”  By identifying female roles in society and understanding what women’s issues are in learning, working and living fully, the Jean Forest Leadership Academy will empower young women to achieve academically and grow spiritually by developing their gifts and talents.

We are strong in our Catholic beliefs and values and are closely connected with our parishes, the Holy Rosary Church (just steps away where we can attend mass) and Santa Maria Goretti.  We provide a wonderful faith-based education. 

We strongly believe in our community and provide programs such as English as a Second Language, French as a Second Language (grades 4-9), and Daily Physical Activity. Our students demonstrate high academic results throughout our grades.

We hope that you can find our site informative and it can help you learn more about our school.

Please contact the office or email us for further information or a personal visit.
