Our Story

The roots of Grande Prairie Public School Division extend deep into our community’s heart. Founded by a group of passionate educators and community advocates who saw the need for more than just standard academic support, we emerged as a response to a genuine calling. Walking through the neighborhoods, hearing the hopes and dreams of families, we understood that education should encompass life skills, physical wellness, and emotional resilience. With this vision, we started an initiative that encourages students to thrive in various aspects of their lives, not just academically. Our journey hasn’t been without its challenges. As we navigated through the evolving landscape of education, one thing remained constant—our commitment to the community we serve. Each program we implement reflects our community’s unique flavor, ensuring that every voice is heard. Personal stories of student success resonate through the hallways, fueling our drive to innovate further. Whether it’s through fitness programs or wellness workshops, the relationships we forge are not just professional; they are personal. Each positive impact, each family supported, grows the narrative of why we exist. We love what we do here, and it shows in our vital programs that breathe life into learning, proving that education truly is a lifelong journey.
