Welcome to Qualicum School District
 
From Bowser to Nanoose Bay, Errington to French Creek and Parksville to Qualicum Beach we are a family of schools both urban and rural that offer a wide variety of educational experiences for your children.

Your Board of Education, School and District Staff invite all parents to participate in their child's education. We value and will continue to support the vital role you as parents play in the success of your child's school years. We hope that you will participate in the many and varied activities that go on in our schools. We strive to offer choice and alternatives for all students and families.

We also continue to work collaboratively with our business community and many local social services agencies providing additional support and opportunities for all children. 

Below are the District's Vision, Mission, and Value Statements that will guide and inform future decision-making and direction:

Vision
Consultation with District Indigenous language specialists is required so that the District Vision Statement can be expressed in three languages:  English, French, and Hul'q'umi'num. The following is currently being considered: 
“Always growing" in English
"Toujours grandir" in French
“Yath c̓isum" in Hul'q'umi'num

Mission
The following DRAFT Mission statement was adapted from two sentences in the previous Mission statement:
“We embrace a spirit of curiosity and joy for learning that challenges everyone to become informed and confident designers of their own future."

Values
The following DRAFT Value statements evolved from the previous iteration, but focus on five single words, each with its own simple clarifying phrase or set of key synonyms:

Dynamic - Effective, energetic, and active in our pursuit of learning
Connected - With everyone, including students, families, staff, and communities
Sustainable - Stewardship and care for our finances, the environment, and relationships
Equitable - Fairness, justice, honesty, integrity, dignity, and respect
Purposeful - Focused, efficient, and accountable in improving student outcomes​
