About

Located in Smith, Alberta, Smith School offers Kindergarten to Grade 9 programming, as well as high school courses through Aspen View Public Schools’ Centre for Alternative & Virtual Education. As a community of learners, we are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment. Our role is to provide diverse learning experiences that engage students in developing confidence and leadership skills. We believe in establishing a culture of leadership. We believe that all students have within them the ability to be leaders at every age! Believe in Yourself • Lead Others • Achieve Your Goals Options are offered to students in Grades 6-9 which include band, art, foods, technology and coding, and wood working. Students can join or apply for many different school-wide clubs and leadership roles. Some examples include Run Club, Computer Club, Student Sunshine Group, student secretary and Concession Clerk. Even though we are small in numbers, our sports program is alive and well. We offer after school archery for students in Grades 4-9, cross-country running, track and field, as well as junior high basketball, volleyball and badminton. Student and staff wellness are at the forefront of our school. We value family involvement, as families are a child’s first educators. We have many opportunities for families to be involved in the school, such as volunteering, being a part of the Parent Council or the breakfast for learning program. We also have a dedicated group of parents that make up our Smith School Parent Council -- we would love for you to join us! If you are interested in volunteering, or becoming more involved in your child's education, please contact the school office at 780-829-3979.
