WELCOME TO HAROLD PANABAKER SCHOOLHarold Panabaker is an impressive school community. We are proud to offer English, Late French Immersion and continuing French Immersion programs at our school. We are a relatively small school so we have the opportunity to get to know our students personally and support their educational growth. Mutual respect is the cornerstone of our school. When visitors come to our school it is not long before they comment on the positive tone in the halls and classrooms. Harold Panabaker is a friendly school with high standards for students to achieve to their potential. At Harold Panabaker Junior High students come first and our school's purpose is to support their learning. We do this by providing a safe and secure environment in which to learn. We want all our students to take risks with their learning and get involved in school activities. In addition to our attention to curriculum, we have a strong co-curricular program. Our students regularly participate in a very active intramural program, many clubs, athletic teams and leadership activities. School spirit and pride is strong. Our goal is that students should feel comfortable to share their skills and talents and become an active member of our learning community. Our staff provides a rich learning environment both within the walls of the building as well as during off-campus curriculum based learning experiences. The learning activities are designed to capture the interests, energy and imagination of our students while challenging them to grow as learners. As a school we expect our students:
Our students live up to these expectations because of the positive tone and engaging activities at school. They are great students. As a staff we look forward to working with parents on behalf of your youth. Parents are significant partners in their student's school experience. We have an active Parent Council and a large number of volunteers in the school. Parents are welcome at any school event from parent teacher conferences to school dances. We greatly appreciate the commitment of the parents of our students. We know that parental involvement has a significant impact on student learning. You can catch the excitement of our school community first hand when you volunteer. I would welcome you to visit our school and experience our inspiring school culture of learning. We have talented students who we are extremely proud of. After one visit I am confident you will better understand why we are one of the best Junior High Schools in the city of Calgary.
