CURRENT ENROLMENT INFORMATION 2024 - 2025

Thelma Chalifoux School is now FULL in planned classes in the STEM and Regular program for 2024 - 2025.

Welcome to Thelma Chalifoux School, where our mission is to nurture and empower each student to become their best self. At our school, we believe in the power of creativity, personal growth, and the principle of otipêmisiwak – teaching students the importance of self-accountability and being their own boss. Our unique programs, including a diverse range of extracurricular activities, a social media and broadcasting club, and an inclusive house system, foster a collaborative and supportive community. We emphasize the value of STEM education in developing resilience, problem-solving skills, and an innovative mindset. Our students' experiences reflect significant personal growth, from overcoming shyness to developing strong leadership skills and learning to embrace challenges and failures as essential steps in the learning process. At Thelma Chalifoux School, we are dedicated to providing a transformative educational experience, empowering our students to explore endless possibilities and confidently shape their own futures.

Senator Thelma Chalifoux, our school’s namesake, was known for being a strong and independent woman, unwilling to back down from fighting for the issues she cared about. She valued hard work and dedication, which led to her appointment to the Senate of Canada. It’s these same values that we work to instill in our students at TCS as we prepare them for high school and what lies beyond their academic careers.
