The curriculum in the elementary schools is based on the Ontario Ministry of Education and Training guidelines and curriculum documents, as well as on the philosophy of the distinctiveness of Catholic education, as outlined in the Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District Board’s Mission and Vision located on the Board’s web site.

The Board’s web site also provides detailed information on specific Elementary Programs and Curriculum Areas.

To access Ontario Ministry of Education Publications and Curriculum Documents, please visit the Ontario Ministry of Education website. You will find a wealth of information on current Ministry initiatives.

A new Ministry of Education website called abc123 (www.ontario.ca/abc123) has been launched to provide parents with tips and resources they can use in helping children succeed in reading, writing and mathematics.
