Staff have written 7 nationally used textbooks. We offer a full French Immersion program at each grade level. Students can earn a Certificate in French Immersion upon graduation. These connections allow our students to collaborate with students in a variety of Asian and European countries via high speed communications links. Our school has the best ratio of any high school in the Ottawa Caleton District School Board, with better than a 5 to 1 student to computer ratio.
Information technology is integrated across the curriculum as a vital learning tool.
We teach with technology, duplicating its the transparent use in the real world today and in the future. Sir Wilfrid Laurier S.S. blends a traditional small, safe school atmosphere within a modern full service facility. The school was built incorporating state of the art digital technology, fully wired and equipped with more than 600 computers. As a leader in this field, the school shares its expertise and often equipment with local elementary schools as they do projects that involve such technologies. We have a T.V. and radio station, full Internet access and a Bulletin Board to connect the school, staff, and community.
