About Ăcole Porter Street School
Welcome to Ăcole Porter Street School, where every child is valued, supported, and encouraged to thrive. From Kindergarten through Grade 5, we take pride in creating a caring and respectful school community where learning is meaningful, engaging, and fun.
We offer a well-rounded education in both English and French Immersion, with programs that include strong Academics, Fine Arts, Library, Learning Assistance, EAL, and Athletics. Our dedicated staff work closely with families to support each childâs growthâacademically, socially, and emotionally.
Our wonderful Parent Advisory Council (PAC) plays an active role in bringing our community together. Through programs and events like the Km Club, theatre opportunities, Fruit and Veggie Program, Hot Lunches, PJ/Movie Nights, and Bingo Night, our PAC helps make Porter a welcoming and vibrant place for all families. They also ensure extra food is available for students who may need itâreflecting the care and generosity that define our school.
Our students come from a diverse and dynamic community, and we celebrate that diversity every day. By providing inclusive and supportive learning experiences, we help each child build confidence, develop their strengths, and set goals for success.
Nestled just steps from Como Lake and close to major transportation routes, Porter Street is home to about 330 students. Our spacious, single-level schoolâbuilt in the early 1960sâfeatures open green spaces, a grass field, a large lit all-weather field used by community sports groups, and two playgrounds with modern play structures.
At Ăcole Porter Street School, we believe that when families, staff, and students work together, incredible things happenâand every child feels a true sense of belonging.â
