Mission Statement

At Queen Elizabeth, we are dedicated to the personal academic growth of every child. We model and encourage the joy and excitement of learning as well as respect for one another in a safe, welcoming environment.

About Queen Elizabeth Public School

Queen Elizabeth is starting its 53rd year as a warm and welcoming learning environment for students in this northeast community of Ottawa. Visitors to the school are able to view the artwork created by the students in honour of the Governor General’s visit for our 50th Anniversary Celebration. The artwork, which lines the walls of our school, showcases the countries of origin for many of our students. Students and their families experience an “open door, open minds” philosophy. Students are welcomed into the school early in the morning to get help with homework, work on extra-curricular activities or to just get an early start to their academic day. In addition to academics, students at Queen Elizabeth learn problem solving strategies and skills to help them become responsible citizens while demonstrating pride in their school. Graduates of Queen Elizabeth often come back to visit or volunteer at the school!
