About Horse Hill School
Since 1953, Horse Hill School has provided high-quality education to the expanding and celebrated communities of NE Edmonton. Nestled in an idyllic and tranquil setting, Horse Hill is committed to working closely with students, families, and partners ensuring success for all students within a culture of excellence. We are committed to the emotional and social wellness of every child and celebrate our safe and caring school community.
With a focus on high-impact literacy and numeracy practices, our inclusive learning community challenges students at their independent levels. We believe that staff, families and partners work alongside students to support them in reaching their highest academic and personal potentials. Everyone at Horse Hill is a learner and a leader, making their learning journey together.
We offer regular programming from Kindergarten to Grade 6, with Full-day Kindergarten and French as a second language in Division II. We will be offering Cogito programming from Kindergarten to Grade 6 for the 2021-22 school year.
A highly engaged and committed Parent Advisory Association (PAA) is a deeply valued part of the Horse Hill community, funding many initiatives to support quality learning and promote safe and caring learning environments. Through the PAA's dedicated work, Horse Hill has seen advancements in access to technology, teaching and learning resources, and exciting learning enrichment opportunities for students. Student confidence and citizenship is facilitated through an emphasis on global citizenship, conflict resolution and self-regulation.
