About George P. Nicholson School

At George P. Nicholson School, we understand that each student learns in a unique way, and that there are various pathways to learning. Our elementary school focuses on teaching students the skills they will need for the 21st century, including leadership, technology and citizenship skills. French as a Second Language is available in Grades 4 to 6. We host many extracurricular activities such as choirs, guitar, chess club, leadership groups and sports clubs.

We foster a strong connection between the home and the school and benefit from an active school council and parent society, as well as important partnerships with community organizations such as Junior Achievement. We offer before and after-school care, through the attached YMCA, in the building and a student lunch program.
