    School Philosophy

    Jackson Heights School, as an advocate of lifelong learning, supports students to be independent thinkers and responsible citizens in a positive, challenging and diverse learning environment. We believe that this goal is realized by emphasizing teaching excellence through development of individual expertise and team collaboration; successful learning where students are challenged to become engaged learners as expressed in a variety of ways; citizenship and healthy living. We strive to create a positive learning environment where students, as responsible global citizens, feel accepted and safe. We feel that a strong sense of community is developed through school-wide events, classes working together, and celebrating our diversity. We recognize that strong literacy, numeracy and technology skills are essential for students to become life-long learners who ask questions, think critically, and problem solve in our knowledge-based society.

PRINCIPAL MESSAGE

Welcome to Jackson Heights School! I feel incredibly fortunate and honoured to be the Principal of Jackson Heights and look forward to all that we will learn, celebrate, and accomplish together as a school community.

At Jackson Heights, relationships and belonging are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to creating a safe, caring, and welcoming school where every child feels seen, valued, respected, and supported to succeed. We are proud of the diversity within our community and celebrate the cultures, languages, traditions, identities, and stories that make Jackson Heights such a special place.

We believe deeply in the potential of every child. Together, we provide high-quality learning experiences with a strong focus on literacy, numeracy, well-being, and student success. We strive to help our students discover their strengths, build confidence and resilience, and grow as learners and leaders.

We believe strong schools are built through meaningful partnerships with families. By working together, communicating openly, and learning from one another, we can create a school where every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, belong, and thrive.

We are incredibly proud of Jackson Heights and excited for the year ahead. We look forward to learning, celebrating, and creating meaningful memories alongside our students and families as we continue building a community where everyone feels connected, supported, and proud to belong.

Yours in partnership,

Mrs. Priya Khan, M.Ed.
Principal
