Glenwood School is an English-language Kindergarten to Grade 9 school in the Winnipeg, Manitoba neighbourhood of St. Vital. The school enrollment is approximately 250 students. The school offers a range of programming designed to meet the varied needs of its community.
Glenwood's motto is "Together towards Tomorrow."
[edit] Beliefs
The school has created three belief statements as guiding principles for the staff and students to follow. They are as follows:
1. Each person has the right to a SAFE and PEACEFUL environment.
2. Each person needs to CO-OPERATE to make learning successful and fun.
3. Each person has the right to be ACCEPTED and RESPECTED.
[edit] Programs
Glenwood offers athletic, academic and special interest extracurricular activities, both at lunch and after school. Glenwood is home to the middle-years Interdivisional Program for Students with Autism. They offer music classes for Kindergarten to grade 5 and a band program for students in grades 6 to 9. A private daycare operates within the school and provides both before- and after-school programming, as well as a half day program for the Kindergarten students. Glenwood has an active Home and School Association and also benefits from the many community volunteers that help out in the school. Last year the students, under the direction of the Home and School Association, raised almost $30,000 for a new play structure. The Art students, with the help of an at-risk grant, attended Camp Stephens for three days in May.
